How to Use the Gainsight CS MCP in Cursor
Pull live Gainsight CS data directly into Cursor. Build internal tools and scripts with real customer context, not mock data.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Gainsight CS MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Gainsight CS to Cursor and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Build Scripts with Live Health Scores
Stop hardcoding stub data. Ask the Cursor agent to fetch a customer's real health score using `get_company_health`, then tell it to generate a Python script that uses that live data. You'll be prototyping with actual information from the start. You're not limited to a single score. Tell the agent to `list_customer_companies`, loop through them, and build a report. The code appears in your editor, ready to run, all powered by this MCP connection.
Automate Timeline Logging from Code
If you're building an integration, you can use the Cursor agent to show you how to programmatically add events to a customer's timeline. Just ask it to generate the code that calls `log_timeline_activity`. This is a fast way to learn the Gainsight API. Ask the agent to fetch your tasks with `list_cockpit_tasks` and then write the code to log a completion note. The MCP server provides the live connection, and Cursor writes the code that uses it.
Generate Code with the Gainsight CS MCP Server
You can use the agent to bootstrap your code with real data structures. Ask it to use `get_person_details` or `get_cta_metadata` to get a live response, then tell it to generate the corresponding Go or TypeScript types for you. This saves a ton of time you'd otherwise spend digging through API docs. Just ask: 'Get the details for this CTA and write a React component to display it.' The agent uses `get_cta_metadata` and writes the component right in your editor.
