Perplexity

Code with live Companies House data

Stop writing software against fake mock structures or outdated stubs. This MCP server lets your Cursor agent query live UK corporate registries while you write your application logic. Use `get_company` and `list_filings` to inject actual corporate payloads directly into your active workspace. Your agent writes code that handles real-world data structures on the first try.

Automate portfolio management in Cursor

Manage your entire UK corporate list directly from your coding environment. You can programmatically verify, add, or prune entities without switching contexts. Run `add_company` or `remove_company` to update your portfolio status. The agent can verify the current state of your list using `list_companies` to confirm updates succeeded.

Live API status checks

Debug integration issues without leaving your editor. Your MCP agent monitors API connectivity and account balances to ensure your automated filing scripts run without interruption. Check your setup instantly with `check_informdirect_status`. You can also pull `get_account` to verify your remaining balance before executing high-volume queries.

Prerequisites

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 Inform Direct 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.
