Build live UI mockups in Cursor with real data

The `generate_chart_url` tool lets you write frontend code that renders actual visual metrics instead of empty placeholders. While coding in Cursor, you can ask the agent to fetch a real chart link using your local development variables. This means you test your layout with genuine data constraints from day one. Your editor displays the live image in the chat or inline preview, allowing you to tweak dimensions and colors before committing.

Render complex data structures in this MCP Server

When your application handles massive arrays of data points, the `render_chart_post` tool executes a POST request to return a Base64 Data URI. Cursor parses this payload instantly, letting you verify complex charts that would fail a standard GET request. You don't have to deal with the headache of debugging broken image sources during development. The agent writes the exact Base64 handling code you need, verified by live tests executed inside your workspace.

Generate and test QR codes inside Cursor

Your editor uses `generate_chart_url` to construct functional QR codes for your application routes. When building a mobile onboarding flow, you can generate the exact graphic you need to test the user journey. The agent drops the generated asset directly into your workspace files. You scan the code from your monitor to verify the redirect logic without leaving your coding session.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "image-charts-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }

Common questions about Image-Charts MCP in Cursor

Ask the Cursor agent to call `generate_chart_url` with your specific data points. The agent will output the correct URL string directly into your HTML or Markdown files using this MCP Server.

When your dataset goes over 2KB, you must have the editor call `render_chart_post` instead. This retrieves the chart as a Base64 string, which Cursor can embed directly into your source code.

Yes, you can command your Cursor agent to use the Image-Charts MCP Server to build QR codes for any endpoint. It uses `generate_chart_url` to output the image, which you can save directly to your assets directory.

The server runs securely within your local environment setup. You do not need complex credential plumbing to start rendering charts; your editor handles the communication once the server is configured.

Your data payloads, including raw numbers, labels, and QR text, are sent securely through the MCP protocol to generate the graphic. The server does not write this data to persistent storage, ensuring your application metrics remain private.
