Cursor integration for Gift Up! orders

Pull live order information into your code files while you write them. `get_order_details` allows the agent to read current metadata directly into your editor. This removes the need for hardcoded test data. You build features against production order structures.

Manage Gift Up! webhooks in Cursor

Check your current event subscriptions with `list_gift_webhooks` without opening a browser. You see exactly what triggers your backend logic. This helps you debug integration issues faster. You can verify your setup by running `verify_api_connection` right from the terminal.

Sync Cursor with Gift Up! cards

Fetch a list of all active cards using `list_active_gift_cards` to populate your dev environment. It gives you a clean view of your current liability. Your agent can parse these JSON responses to write tests. It keeps your local logic aligned with your live account.

Setup guide

Set up Gift Up! 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 Gift Up! 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.

Verify the connection

Ask Cursor something like "List my recent Gift Up! transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Gift Up! tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.
