How to Use the Gridscale (IaaS & PaaS Cloud Hosting API) MCP in Cursor
Code and provision your Gridscale cloud infrastructure directly inside Cursor using real-time server telemetry.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Gridscale (IaaS & PaaS Cloud Hosting API) MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Gridscale (IaaS & PaaS Cloud Hosting API) 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.
Build server setup scripts in Cursor with real API data
Stop writing code in Cursor against fake Gridscale API responses. Cursor uses this MCP Server to run `list_servers` and `list_networks` to pull your actual Gridscale environment into your editor, letting Composer generate code that matches your live setup. When you need to spin up a new node, Cursor calls `create_server` using your real Gridscale account templates. You write Gridscale configuration files in Cursor that work on the first run because they use your actual infrastructure parameters.
Diagnose performance issues directly from your editor
If your application is throwing errors, ask Cursor to check the Gridscale server state. The editor runs `get_server_metrics` to grab real-time performance data and displays your Gridscale telemetry alongside your codebase. Your Cursor agent analyzes these metrics to pinpoint resource bottlenecks on your Gridscale nodes. You don't have to leave Cursor to check if a CPU spike or disk I/O limit is causing your Gridscale database queries to hang.
Control server power states during local development
You can manage your remote Gridscale development nodes without leaving your active Cursor file. Cursor runs `get_server_power` to check if a machine is active, then executes `set_server_power` or `shutdown_server` on your Gridscale nodes. This lets you pause expensive Gridscale testing nodes when you finish a coding session in Cursor. Your agent keeps your Gridscale cloud spend low by ensuring idle servers are shut down directly from the Cursor terminal panel.
