How to Use the Grepsr MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I add the Grepsr MCP Server to Cursor?

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root and add the configuration under the mcpServers key. Once saved, enable Agent mode in the chat panel to start calling the scraping tools using the MCP configuration.

Q: Can Cursor trigger a Grepsr crawl while I write code?

Yes, the editor's agent mode can call runreport to start an active web crawl. This lets you test your ingestion scripts with fresh data as you build them.

Q: How does the Grepsr MCP Server handle data schemas in Cursor?

The agent runs getreportdetails to inspect the exact fields your scraper returns. It then uses that structure to generate typed interfaces or database models directly in your file.

Write code in Cursor using real-time scraped data from your Grepsr web scraping projects.

Inject live scraper data into Cursor code files

Stop writing Cursor code against stale mock data instead of real Grepsr extractions. Cursor uses `get_latest_data` to pull actual scraped records from your active web crawls directly into your active editor tab. Your Cursor editor reads the exact Grepsr JSON schema using `get_report_details` before writing parsing logic. This means you write working Cursor code on the first try without guessing the Grepsr scraper's output structure.

Trigger Grepsr crawls directly from the editor

Run fresh Grepsr crawls without breaking your Cursor coding flow to open a browser. The Cursor MCP Server invokes `run_report` to spin up your scraper whenever you need to test live data ingestion. You can monitor the progress of these Grepsr web crawls inside your Cursor terminal panel. Your Cursor editor tracks execution times using `get_report_history` so you know exactly when the Grepsr dataset is ready to import.

Manage scraping projects inside your IDE

Let your Cursor development environment inspect your entire Grepsr scraping setup. Cursor calls `list_projects` to map out your active extractions and match them to your local database schemas. You can also audit your Grepsr API limits while writing intensive data loops in Cursor. The Cursor agent runs `get_usage_stats` to verify you won't hit Grepsr rate limits during automated testing runs.

Setup guide

Set up Grepsr 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 Grepsr 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.
4

Verify the connection

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

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "grepsr-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }
}
