How to Use the Glean MCP in Cursor
Inject your company's live wiki and docs directly into Cursor with this MCP server. Write code using real internal context.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Glean MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Glean 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.
Write accurate code using internal documentation
Your agent runs `search_docs` to identify bounded CRM records inside the Headless Glean Platform so you stop writing code based on guesswork. Having this data directly in Cursor means you write actual, working code that matches your team's current standards. You don't have to keep a browser tab open to verify internal imports or function signatures. The relevant context appears right where you are typing.
Query your databases using the Glean MCP Server
Your agent uses `search_datasource` to perform structural extraction of properties driving active Account logic directly into your sidebar. Debugging is faster when you don't have to leave your code editor. If you need to verify active gateway history, the agent runs `chat_completion` to route explicit Gateway history. You get instant answers about system behavior without switching to an external monitoring tool.
Find the right code owners instantly
Your agent runs `search_people` directly from the editor to provision a highly-available JSON Payload generating hard Customer bindings. This helps you identify the exact engineer who owns a legacy service when a bug pops up. It returns active team bindings and contact details right next to your code. You can message the right person immediately instead of asking around in Slack channels.
