How to Use the ElevenLabs MCP in Cursor

Q: Can I test ElevenLabs text-to-speech outputs directly inside Cursor?

Yes, you can ask Cursor to run texttospeech using your active profiles. The editor will trigger the tool and save the resulting audio file directly to your project workspace for instant testing.

Q: How do I monitor my ElevenLabs character usage while coding in Cursor?

You can ask the agent to run getsubscriptioninfo at any time. It will fetch your current character balance and usage stats, helping you avoid unexpected API overages during heavy development.

Q: Can I clean up test voices created during debugging?

Yes. You can instruct your agent to run deletevoice to remove any temporary voice profiles you created during your coding session.

Build voice-enabled applications with real-time ElevenLabs API integration right inside your Cursor editor.

MCP Server Integration for Live Voice Coding

Stop writing code against stale documentation or guessed API payloads. This MCP Server lets your Cursor agent pull real voice lists with `list_voices` and inspect specific parameters using `get_voice_settings` while you write your backend logic. Because the agent works with live data, it generates accurate code that matches your actual voice profiles. You get working integration scripts on the first try, avoiding the usual trial-and-error cycle of debugging API responses.

Inline Audio Generation and Testing

Test your voice synthesis code without leaving your development environment. You can have Cursor run `text_to_speech` to generate test files locally, letting you hear the actual output of your prompts instantly using this MCP setup. If you need to verify specific historical outputs during debugging, the agent calls `get_history_item` to fetch metadata. You can retrieve direct links using `get_download_link` to listen to the files in your browser.

Automated Voice and Model Auditing

Keep your voice assets in sync with your codebase. Your agent can list your active synthesis models using `list_models` and write configuration files that match the exact model IDs available on your tier. When building voice-cloning features, you can test the deletion flow safely. The agent uses `delete_voice` to remove test profiles, ensuring your local database matches the remote state.

Setup guide

Set up ElevenLabs MCP in Cursor

Prerequisites

Cursor installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".
2

Add the ElevenLabs MCP

Cursor will create or open .cursor/mcp.json in your project root. Paste the JSON snippet on the right. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Enable Agent mode

Open Composer (Cmd+I / Ctrl+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown at the top. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode.
4

Verify the connection

Ask Cursor something like "List my recent ElevenLabs transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the ElevenLabs tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.
