How to Use the Filemail MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I add the Filemail server to my Cursor project?

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your repository root and define the MCP server config. Your Cursor agent will instantly gain access to tools like login and initializetransfer.

Q: Can Cursor pull my Filemail contacts list into my code?

Yes, the listcontacts tool retrieves your saved recipients. Your Cursor agent can use this list to auto-populate distribution scripts or email variables in your workspace.

Q: How does Cursor track the status of sent Filemail packages?

The agent executes gettransferdetails to check download counts and recipient access logs. This data is printed directly into your Cursor chat window or terminal pane.

Generate code and ship massive data assets simultaneously by letting Cursor manage your Filemail transfers.

Perplexity

Ship build artifacts directly from Cursor

The `initialize_transfer` tool gives your Cursor agent the ability to bundle build outputs, zip files, or compiled binaries and send them out. You can tell the editor to compile your project and immediately upload the resulting folder to a client. After the upload completes, Cursor uses the local MCP Server to pipe the remaining data and calls `complete_transfer` to seal the package and generate a download URL. The agent can then paste that exact URL directly into your active code comments or documentation files.

Audit sent files inside the Cursor editor

The `list_sent_transfers` tool allows your Cursor agent to query your account history and display your active uploads. You do not need to open a web browser to check if a client downloaded their files; the agent reads the log directly. If you need to clean up old builds to free up storage, the agent can call `delete_transfer` on any item in that list. This keeps your active workspace clean and prevents old development builds from lingering on your account.

Configure custom branding via Cursor MCP Server

The `get_configuration` tool lets your Cursor agent pull down your custom subdomain and branded upload page settings. This ensures that any transfer you initialize from the editor matches your company's official corporate identity. The agent can also query `get_user` to check your current account tier and transfer limits before pushing large datasets. This prevents errors when trying to send files that exceed your plan's maximum capacity.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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