How to Use the Fastly MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I configure the Fastly integration inside Cursor?

Add the server block to your .cursor/mcp.json file. Your agent will immediately gain access to the full suite of edge management tools.

Q: Can my Cursor agent automate Fastly service creation?

Yes, the agent can run createservice to spin up new CDN targets. This allows you to bootstrap edge configurations directly from your workspace.

Q: Is it safe to run Fastly cache purges inside Cursor?

Absolutely, since the agent only runs purgeallcache when you explicitly instruct it to. You retain full control over when edge invalidations occur.

Q: How do I debug backend origins using Fastly in Cursor?

Ask your agent to check your active endpoints. It runs listversionbackends to display your current origin configurations directly in your chat sidebar.

Manage Fastly CDN versions and instantly purge edge caches while writing code in Cursor.

Deploy Fastly configurations directly from your Cursor agent

Your Cursor developer agent reads your active Fastly setup using `list_services` to coordinate CDN deployments alongside your code edits. You no longer need to switch to a browser to push a draft Fastly version live. Once your code is ready, the agent uses this MCP Server to run `activate_service_version` and promote the correct Fastly configuration. This keeps your edge deployment perfectly aligned with your latest Cursor editor changes.

Audit Fastly backend configurations within Cursor

Use `list_version_backends` inside your Cursor editing workspace to check where your Fastly API requests route. Your Cursor agent maps out origin servers to verify they match your local environment variables. If a Fastly domain is missing, the Cursor agent runs `list_version_domains` to pinpoint the gap. You fix routing issues before they hit production, keeping your edge logic clean inside Cursor.

Clear Fastly CDN cache and track stats via this MCP Server

Trigger `purge_all_cache` through this MCP Server the second you deploy new code in Cursor. Your Cursor agent handles the Fastly cache invalidation so your users see updates instantly. Keep an eye on edge performance using `get_service_stats` to check that Fastly traffic flows normally post-purge. This brings real-time CDN telemetry directly into your Cursor coding editor.

Setup guide

Set up Fastly 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 Fastly 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 Fastly transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Fastly tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.

.cursor/mcp.json

  "mcpServers": {
    "fastly-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
