Generate code with real Census FIPS data in Cursor

`get_census_block_by_lat_lon` queries the government database to return Census Block FIPS codes for your exact coordinates. Cursor uses this tool in Agent mode to insert real geographic identifiers directly into your active code files. Instead of writing mock data, your agent pulls actual US Census blocks to test your geolocation functions. This ensures your code works with real-world geographic structures before you even run a test suite.

Identify telecom boundaries directly in your editor

`get_fcc_areas_by_lat_lon` retrieves CMA, PEA, and EAG boundaries intersecting your target coordinates. Cursor runs this tool to verify licensing zones without requiring you to switch to a web browser. The agent processes the raw boundary arrays to help you write accurate spatial logic. You get precise regulatory regions mapped to your coordinates instantly.

Connect the FCC Geo MCP Server to your project

The FCC Geo MCP Server integrates into your workspace by adding a simple block to your `.cursor/mcp.json` file. Your agent gains immediate access to the public FCC endpoints. This setup avoids the need for external authentication libraries or local API keys. Your development environment stays clean while gaining live spatial query tools.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Common questions about FCC Geo MCP in Cursor

Create a `.cursor/mcp.json` file in your project root and define the MCP Server. Once configured, enable Agent mode in the Cursor chat panel to start querying coordinates.

Yes, the Cursor agent can invoke FCC Geo tools to fetch real FIPS codes and populate your test fixtures. This lets you build tests using live government data instead of static mock files.

Yes, the FCC Geo tools must connect to the public FCC endpoints to resolve coordinates. The MCP Server requires an active internet connection to transmit the lookup requests and receive the boundary data.

This usually happens if the coordinates are outside the US or formatted incorrectly. Ensure you pass valid latitude and longitude decimal values so the FCC Geo tools can match them to US census tracts.

Your coordinate pairs are transmitted directly to the federal FCC servers to perform the spatial lookup. No local caching or tracking occurs, ensuring your geographic query parameters remain private.
