Context-aware issue management in Cursor

Bring your support tickets into the editor while you code. Call `get_issue_details` to pull specific ticket context directly into your Agent chat. You can then use `add_issue_message` to append your findings or technical notes to the ticket without ever switching windows.

Audit logs for code-related tickets in Cursor

Track exactly what happened to a bug report by running `get_issue_audit_logs`. This gives you the full history of status changes and agent interactions. Cross-reference these logs with your commit history to see if a recent change matches the reported issue timeline.

Manage support apps in Cursor environments

Use `list_registered_apps` to see which Helpshift apps are currently active in your account. This helps you target the correct app ID when creating new tickets. Once you have the ID, use `create_issue` to log new bugs directly from your terminal or chat session.

Setup guide

Set up Helpshift 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 Helpshift 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 Helpshift transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Helpshift tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.
