Generate Base64 audio inside Cursor

`text_to_speech` turns your text strings into Base64 encoded audio files. Your agent writes a script in your codebase and immediately generates the corresponding voice file to test the implementation. Developers building voice applications usually waste hours switching between their editor and external APIs. Now, you prompt the editor to create the asset, and it drops the raw data straight into your constants file.

Transcribe test files via MCP Server

`transcribe_audio` extracts text from multi-language speech files. When you write a unit test that requires a transcript, Cursor reads the source URL and fetches the exact text automatically. Hardcoding mock transcripts consumes valuable engineering time. Your AI client pulls the real transcription from the API, ensuring your test cases match actual production outputs.

Clean and categorize sound data

`enhance_audio` filters out background noise from your raw recordings. You hand the editor an MP3 URL, and it cleans the track for better downstream accuracy. `classify_audio` analyzes that same file to categorize the sounds inside it. Building an audio processing pipeline requires valid test data, and this tool generates the exact JSON metadata you need for your fixtures.

Setup guide

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

Common questions about Hugging Face Audio MCP in Cursor

Create an `mcp.json` file in your project root. Add the server command there, and Cursor will pick up the tools when you activate Agent mode.

The tools require a URL for classification and transcription. You will need to host your test files on a local server or public bucket first.

The transcription tool handles multiple languages by default. You just pass the file, and the API figures out the rest.

The MCP Server returns Base64 audio almost instantly depending on the text length. Short UI sound effects take less than a second to render.

The editor transmits your specific audio URLs and text prompts to the external API for processing. The MCP connection guarantees that your source code remains private while only the targeted media payloads are sent out.
