Generate Code with Real Expensya Data in Cursor

The `list_expenses` tool feeds actual corporate spending records directly into your Cursor agent. Your editor writes and tests custom accounting scripts using live payloads instead of placeholder mock data. By referencing real transactions, your MCP tool builds accurate data parsers that handle edge cases before deployment. You avoid runtime errors caused by unexpected API response shapes.

Map Categories and Projects in the Editor

The `list_expense_categories` tool pulls active corporate categories directly into your coding environment. You write scripts that automatically match codebase modules to specific projects listed in `list_analytical_projects`. Your agent uses this live context to generate strict validation schemas for your internal apps. This ensures your custom tools always align with your current corporate accounting structure.

Automate Internal Expense Claims

The `create_new_expense` tool files development-related expenses without leaving your code files. When you buy an API subscription, you trigger a claim directly from your terminal or chat. Verifying the transaction against `list_payment_methods` ensures the correct card is billed. It keeps your development costs tracked without forcing you to open a browser.

Setup guide

Set up Expensya 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 Expensya 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.

Verify the connection

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