Prototype integrations with the folk MCP Server

This MCP Server feeds real CRM data into your coding environment. You tell Cursor to build a dashboard, and the agent calls `list_contacts` to populate the UI with actual user records instead of mock data. Writing synchronization scripts becomes trivial. The agent hits `list_groups` to understand your data structure, then writes the exact mapping logic required for your internal tools.

Inject relationship context mid-code

Testing API interactions requires real payloads. Cursor uses `get_contact_details` to fetch a live profile and writes parsing functions based on the actual JSON structure returned by the CRM. You skip the API documentation completely. The agent runs `list_interactions` to see how touchpoints are formatted, then immediately generates the TypeScript interfaces for your application.

Automate CRM write operations

Building onboarding flows means pushing data to the CRM. You ask Cursor to draft a signup handler, and it invokes `create_contact` to verify the payload requirements in real time. Validating note structures works the same way. The agent pulls existing examples via `list_contact_notes` to ensure the new submission script matches the expected format perfectly.

Setup guide

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

Common questions about folk MCP in Cursor

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root. Add the server configuration, switch to Agent mode, and start asking for live CRM data.

Yes. The agent triggers the creation tool to push test records directly into your CRM. You verify the integration works before deploying the code.

The agent interacts with the live API instead of guessing from static documentation. You get working code built around actual data structures.

Tell the agent to list your CRM groups. The MCP tool pulls the IDs and automatically hardcodes them into the filtering logic of your script.

Your candidate emails, sales notes, and interaction histories travel through an ephemeral zero-trust tunnel. Vinkius handles the authentication and destroys the container after execution. No personal information is stored.
