Get live matching metrics in Cursor

Your agent needs real data to write better code. By using `calculate_fuzzy_distance`, you pull exact similarity scores into your editor while you work. No more stubbing out fuzzy logic. Cursor calls this MCP server to get the real numbers, letting you build features that actually handle typos and variations correctly.

Test algorithms during development

Switching between Levenshtein and Jaro-Winkler is just one parameter change away. You can test how each algorithm handles your specific dataset inside your IDE. `calculate_fuzzy_distance` provides the raw output you need to fine-tune your thresholds. Stop guessing which math works best and start seeing the results in your terminal.

Automate data cleaning with your agent

Give your agent the ability to reconcile records by adding this server to your project. Cursor uses the tool to compare incoming records against your existing codebase. This prevents bad data from creeping into your system. The agent performs the check, evaluates the distance score, and cleans the input before it ever gets committed.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fuzzy-string-distance-engine-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"

Common questions about Fuzzy String Distance Engine MCP in Cursor

It provides the agent with a deterministic way to compare strings. Instead of guessing if two variables refer to the same entity, the agent uses `calculate_fuzzy_distance` to get a score.

You can add it to your `.cursor/mcp.json` file in your project root. This keeps the configuration specific to your current workspace.

It is a tool for your development workflow. While you can use the output to guide your logic, the server itself is designed to run locally during your coding sessions.

It is highly optimized for local execution. You will get near-instant results when calling the tool from the Cursor chat.

It treats all input as transient text. Your PII stays on your local machine and is never sent to any external service when using the Fuzzy String Distance Engine via Cursor.
