Real-time Cursor infrastructure changes

Stop hardcoding environment values that change. Your agent uses `create_machine` to spin up live staging environments while you write the surrounding code. It updates your configuration files using actual API data. You get exact, non-mocked responses for every resource call.

Direct app management via Cursor

Deploy changes and verify them without a terminal. Use `get_app` to pull current production settings into your editor context. If you need to scale, the agent executes `update_machine` based on your logic. It bridges the gap between your code and the underlying Fly.io infrastructure.

Volume snapshotting and recovery

Protect your data during development cycles. Use `list_volume_snapshots` to check your backups before running destructive tests. If something goes sideways, `delete_volume` or `create_volume` allows you to reset your environment state. The agent handles the cleanup automatically.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Common questions about Fly.io Extended MCP in Cursor

Add the server to your .cursor/mcp.json file. Once saved, enable Agent mode in your chat to start calling infrastructure tools.

The server runs locally within your editor scope. Your API tokens are managed through environment variables on your machine, preventing exposure.

It has the capability if you grant the necessary permissions. Always restrict your API token scope to only the apps you need to modify.

Yes. The agent automatically detects the tools and can chain them together to resolve complex infrastructure tasks.

It only touches the specific Fly.io resource metadata you request. It does not scan your local source code unless you explicitly provide that context.
