Connect ImageKit (Media Optimization & DAM) MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect ImageKit (Media Optimization & DAM) to Cursor and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Real-time media context for Cursor
Use `list_media_files` to pull live asset lists directly into your editor context. Your agent now sees your actual media inventory. Run `get_file_details` to feed accurate file information into your code generation. This removes the need for manual lookups.
Automated asset and cache management
Call `purge_cdn_cache` from within your chat to clear stale assets while debugging. You keep your site performance high without switching windows. Execute `wipe_media_asset` to prune your database during refactoring. The agent performs these cleanup tasks as part of your coding workflow.
Deep schema and metadata access
Invoke `get_exif_metadata` to retrieve image properties for your dynamic media components. You get precise technical data in your editor. Use `list_custom_fields` to understand your object structure. This ensures your code remains compatible with your current media schema.
