Agentic Routing inside Cursor

Enable Agent mode and let the router pick the best model for your specific visual task. It uses `generate_image_advanced` to match your prompt's complexity. Stop manually swapping APIs. The server makes the decision based on the style and quality constraints you define.

In-Editor Image Iteration

Modify your assets without switching tabs. Use `edit_image` to perform targeted changes on your existing files right within your workspace. It keeps your context intact. You can even use `list_styles` to see which artistic directions are supported before you start.

Direct Access to Model Metadata

Query your available resources instantly. Use `get_model` to inspect specific capabilities before you commit to a generation task. This gives you total control over your output. You'll know exactly what each model can do before the first pixel is rendered.

Setup guide

Set up Image Router 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 Router 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.

Verify the connection

Ask Cursor something like "List my recent Image Router transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Image Router tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.
