About HERE Mobility MCP Server
What you can do
Connect AI agents to the HERE Transit API for comprehensive public transportation planning:
Cursor's Agent mode turns HERE Mobility into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from HERE Mobility and it fetches, processes, and writes — all in a single agentic loop. 8 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- Discover transit trips between any two locations with bus, train, subway, tram, and ferry
- Find nearby stations by GPS coordinates or name search
- Get detailed route information with step-by-step transit instructions and transfers
- Check departure/arrival schedules for any station in real-time
- Plan multimodal journeys combining transit, walking, cycling, and scooter
- Get station details including accessibility, amenities, and serving lines
- Search trips with specific transport modes for customized travel preferences
The HERE Mobility MCP Server exposes 8 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Cursor in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Cursor with the HERE Mobility MCP Server
Cursor AI Code Editor provides unique advantages when paired with HERE Mobility through the Model Context Protocol.
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP — no copy-pasting from external dashboards
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools
HERE Mobility + Cursor Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Cursor combined with the HERE Mobility MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Code generation with live data: ask Cursor to generate a security report module using live DNS and subdomain data fetched through MCP
Automated documentation: have Cursor query your API's tool schemas and generate TypeScript interfaces or OpenAPI specs automatically
Infrastructure-as-code: Cursor can fetch domain configurations and generate corresponding Terraform or CloudFormation templates
Test scaffolding: ask Cursor to pull real API responses via MCP and generate unit test fixtures from actual data
HERE Mobility MCP Tools for Cursor (8)
These 8 tools become available when you connect HERE Mobility to Cursor via MCP:
discover_trips
Returns trip details including departure/arrival times, duration, number of transfers, and transport modes. Use origin and destination in lat,lng format. Optionally specify departure or arrival time in ISO 8601 format. Best for planning multimodal journeys. Discover public transit trips between origin and destination using HERE Transit API
get_nearby_stations
More precise than get_stations with customizable radius. Returns station IDs, names, distances, coordinates, and available lines. Use this for comprehensive station discovery in an area. Find all transit stations within a specific radius of coordinates
get_route_details
Requires the trip ID from a discover_trips result plus original origin/destination and departure time. Use this to review full route before traveling. Get detailed route information for a specific transit trip
get_schedule
Useful for checking when the next bus, train, or subway arrives. Requires station ID from get_stations result. Optionally filter by direction (e.g., "northbound", "downtown"). Get departure/arrival schedule for a specific transit station
get_station_details
Requires station ID from station search results. Use this to review station facilities before planning trips. Get detailed information about a specific transit station
get_stations
Returns station IDs, names, coordinates, and available transport lines. Use this to find stations before planning trips. Find transit stations near a GPS coordinate
get_stations_by_name
g., "Central Station", "Times Square"). Returns matching stations with IDs, names, coordinates, and available transport lines. Use this when you know the station name but not exact coordinates. Find transit stations by name
search_multimodal_trips
Modes can include: transit (bus/train/subway/tram/ferry), walk, bicycle, scooter, taxi. Returns multimodal route options with time breakdown per mode. Use this when user wants to combine walking or cycling with public transit for optimal journey. Search trips combining multiple transport modes (transit, walk, bike, scooter)
Example Prompts for HERE Mobility in Cursor
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Cursor agent to start working with HERE Mobility immediately.
"Find me the best public transit route from Brandenburg Gate to Berlin Central Station departing at 8am tomorrow"
"What buses and trains depart from Times Square in the next 30 minutes?"
