About Hive AI MCP Server
Connect your Hive AI moderation account to any AI agent and take full control of your content safety and compliance workflows through natural conversation.
Cursor's Agent mode turns Hive AI into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Hive AI and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 10 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
What you can do
- Real-time Moderation — Perform synchronous moderation for text and images to filter hate speech, violence, and NSFW content instantly.
- AI Content Detection — Identify if text, images, or audio were created using generative AI models like GPT-4, Midjourney, or DALL-E.
- Asynchronous Processing — Submits large video and audio files for deep moderation and speech-to-text analysis.
- Task Monitoring — Track the status and retrieve results for background moderation tasks using unique task IDs.
- Model Insights — List available Hive AI models and retrieve project-specific configurations for both visual and text projects.
- Compliance Oversight — Access detailed moderation scores and classes to ensure your platform remains safe and professional.
The Hive AI MCP Server exposes 10 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 Hive AI MCP Server
Cursor AI Code Editor provides unique advantages when paired with Hive AI 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
Hive AI + Cursor Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Cursor combined with the Hive AI 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
