How to Use the GivingFuel MCP in Cursor
Build donation-aware features in Cursor by connecting your GivingFuel data to your codebase.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect GivingFuel MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect GivingFuel 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.
Inject live donation data
Write code that interacts with real donor information. Your agent uses `list_donation_registrants` to feed accurate data directly into your editor. Stop relying on static JSON stubs. You get the actual response structure from the API while you type.
Filter campaign orders programmatically
Use `filter_orders_by_status` to isolate successful donations from pending ones. This helps you write logic that handles different payment states correctly. Your AI writes the implementation using the real schema. It understands the fields returned by the GivingFuel API without needing extra documentation.
Sync peer-to-peer campaigns
Access your P2P data through `list_peer_campaigns` to build custom dashboards. You can query specific campaigns to display leaderboards or progress bars in your project. Cursor executes these calls in Agent mode. You define the goal, and the tool fetches the live state of your fundraising efforts.
