How to Use the IP Parking MCP in Cursor
Write parking logic with live hardware context using the IP Parking MCP Server in Cursor.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect IP Parking MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect IP Parking 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.
Run live gate tests in Cursor Agent mode
The `control_gate` tool triggers physical barrier operations directly from your active code session in Cursor. Your Cursor agent calls this tool to check gate states while you write automation scripts, eliminating the need for mock endpoints. By combining this with `get_site_status`, your Cursor agent checks real-time occupancy metrics to ensure your gate-control scripts don't open barriers when a site is completely full. You see the exact hardware response inside your editor.
Debug ANPR event registration inside Cursor MCP Server
The `register_anpr` tool simulates entry and exit events by registering license plates directly from your Cursor terminal. This lets you test how your application handles vehicle arrivals without needing a physical camera feed. You can instantly fetch the results of these simulated events using `list_transactions` to check that your revenue logs update correctly. Cursor uses this live feedback loop to help you write accurate billing integrations.
Verify system health and hardware lists
The `get_system_health` tool checks the connection status between your local development environment and the parking API. Your Cursor editor reads this health check to confirm that your development branch is talking to the correct API gateway. If communication drops, use `list_hardware` to pinpoint whether the issue lies with a specific ticket machine or the entire site network. Cursor displays this status data directly in your workspace.
