Use Cursor to track time against live code tasks and monitor project budgets in real-time.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect GitScrum Time Tracking MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect GitScrum Time Tracking 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.
Context-aware time logging in Cursor
Stop context-switching to log your hours. Use `my_today_tasks` to pull your queue into the chat and `start_timer` to log effort as you write code. Your agent now knows exactly which ticket you are working on. It keeps your billing data in sync with your actual git commits.
Budget tracking for Cursor agents
Ask your agent to check the health of a project using `budget_burndown`. It pulls the data straight from the API. Identify which tasks are burning the most time with `budget_consumption`. It gives you the insight to adjust your focus before you exceed your limits.
Team status monitoring
Get a pulse on your team without leaving the editor. Use `team_status` and `standup_blockers` to see what is holding up your progress. Review your weekly performance metrics with `weekly_digest`. It helps you identify trends in your output and adjust your daily habits.
