How to Use the IPinfo MCP in Cursor

Q: Can Cursor write tests using live responses from IPinfo?

Yes, Cursor can call getipdetails to capture real API payloads and write unit tests based on actual network data. This ensures your code handles real-world edge cases like mixed IPv4 and IPv6 formats.

Q: Does Cursor support the privacy detection tools from IPinfo?

Yes, the MCP integration can invoke getprivacydetails to check if a test IP is a proxy or Tor node. This allows you to write and verify threat detection code directly inside the editor.

Q: Can I use the getownipdetails tool inside Cursor?

You can run getownipdetails to fetch the external IP of the system running Cursor. This is useful for debugging firewall rules or verifying your local development environment's routing.

Generate real networking code in Cursor using live IPinfo geolocation and ASN data instead of static mock files.

Write code with live IPinfo data inside Cursor

Stop writing boilerplate mock data when you're building geolocation features in Cursor; instead, let your agent run `get_ip_details` to inject real, live JSON responses directly into your active codebase. When you ask Cursor to build an IP-based routing middleware, it uses actual IPinfo network payloads instead of guessing the schema. This means your geo-routing logic works the very first time you compile.

Test privacy filters using this MCP Server in Agent mode

Trigger `get_privacy_details` from the Cursor Composer to test how your application handles VPN and proxy traffic. The agent checks if test IPs are masked and writes the corresponding security logic right in your editor. You can also query `get_ip_range` inside Cursor to verify that your IP-blocking lists match actual CIDR blocks. Having these tools inside Cursor means you write, test, and debug security rules in a single interface.

Map routing infrastructure while debugging in Cursor

When debugging connection drops in Cursor, ask your agent to run `get_asn_details` over MCP to verify if the target server belongs to a problematic hosting provider. You get routing details directly inside your terminal or chat panel. If you need to trace older network allocations, use `get_ip_historical` to let the Cursor agent review past ownership records. It helps you write accurate migration scripts for legacy IP blocks without leaving your workspace.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ipinfo-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Common questions about IPinfo MCP in Cursor

Create an mcp.json file in your project root and define the IPinfo MCP server. Cursor will immediately load the tools so you can run live geolocation queries during your coding sessions.

Yes, Cursor can call `get_ip_details` to capture real API payloads and write unit tests based on actual network data. This ensures your code handles real-world edge cases like mixed IPv4 and IPv6 formats.

Yes, the MCP integration can invoke `get_privacy_details` to check if a test IP is a proxy or Tor node. This allows you to write and verify threat detection code directly inside the editor.

You can run `get_own_ip_details` to fetch the external IP of the system running Cursor. This is useful for debugging firewall rules or verifying your local development environment's routing.

The IP addresses and ASNs you look up are transmitted directly to the API via secure HTTPS. Your local editor environment handles the token, and Vinkius runs the query in a zero-trust sandbox to prevent data leaks.
