Inject live Freshsales data into your code

Stop using mock data for your integration tests. Use `list_sales_accounts` to pull real company records into your editor, letting you see how your code handles actual production data. Your agent works with the real schema returned by the API. This ensures your integration logic is production-ready from the first line you write.

Automate your sales reporting in Cursor

Stop manually exporting spreadsheets to analyze your performance. Use `list_leads` to feed raw data into your agent, which can then generate custom analysis scripts on the fly. The server provides the data structure, and you get the code that processes it. It turns your CRM into a data source for your internal tools.

Track activities directly in Cursor

Monitor your upcoming schedule without leaving your terminal. Use `list_appointments` to see your daily meeting volume and adjust your development focus accordingly. It keeps your technical work aligned with your sales reality. You'll know exactly how much time you have for coding before your next call.
