How to Use the intelliHR MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I add the intelliHR MCP Server to my Cursor editor?

Add the server to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root. Once configured, Cursor will automatically detect the tools and let your AI agent call them during chat or edit sessions.

Q: Can Cursor pull office locations from intelliHR?

Yes, the listlocations tool allows Cursor to fetch all registered office addresses. Your coding agent can use this live data to test location-based routing or mapping features.

Q: How do I debug skills data in Cursor using intelliHR?

Run the listskills tool within Cursor to pull the complete skill taxonomy. Your agent can use this data to populate local databases or write validation schemas for skill-tracking features.

Query Live HR Directories in Cursor Agent Mode

The `list_people` tool pulls real-time employee records directly into your Cursor chat. You do not have to write mock data generators because your AI agent pulls actual directory payloads to test your code. Use `get_person` to inspect the exact JSON structure of an individual profile. This lets you build accurate data parsers in your editor using real API responses instead of outdated documentation.

Build Org Charts Using the intelliHR MCP Server

The `list_jobs` tool retrieves active roles and position assignments directly into your Cursor workspace. You can feed this live structure to your code generator to build dynamic org charts on the fly. Combine it with `list_positions` to map title hierarchies without leaving your editor. Having this MCP Server active means your coding agent writes functions that map to your actual business taxonomy.

Validate Compensation Schemas and Pay Structures

The `list_remuneration` tool fetches active pay structures and salary details directly into your Cursor environment. You can write and test custom payroll calculation scripts against real data formats. This direct access removes the guesswork from handling currency and rate fields. Your agent writes precise data transformations because it sees the exact payload structure returned by the API.

Setup guide

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