Generate inventory scripts with live hardware data

The `list_computers` tool injects real serial numbers and computer names directly into your Cursor editor. Your Cursor agent uses this live Jamf Pro payload to write and test custom reporting scripts instead of relying on mock JSON files. It makes writing internal Jamf Pro inventory tools much faster inside Cursor. You get actual data structures from your Jamf Pro instance, so your generated Cursor code works on the first run.

Debug mobile asset status inline

The `get_mobile_device` tool pulls OS versions, security statuses, and user assignments directly into your active Cursor code file. Ask your Cursor agent to write a Jamf Pro API wrapper, and it uses the live mobile schema to map fields correctly. You can verify the exact structure of your iOS inventory using `list_mobile_devices` right inside Cursor. This stops you from writing Cursor code against outdated Jamf Pro API documentation.

Map Jamf Pro metadata inside Cursor

The `list_departments` tool queries your organizational structure so your Cursor agent can write custom sorting logic. Cursor pairs this with `list_users` to build accurate directories of who owns which Jamf Pro managed Apple device. This MCP Server exposes the entire Jamf Pro management hierarchy, including buildings and categories, to your Cursor workspace. You can build internal deployment scripts without leaving your Cursor code editor to check Jamf Pro API endpoints.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Common questions about Jamf Pro MCP in Cursor

Create a `.cursor/mcp.json` file in your project root or global directory. Add this MCP Server configuration under the `mcpServers` key with your Jamf Pro URL and credentials, then enable agent mode in the Cursor chat.

No, the tools are strictly read-only inside Cursor. Your Cursor agent can query `list_packages` or `list_scripts` to build code, but it cannot modify or delete packages on your Jamf Pro distribution points.

You can run it locally via stdio or host it as a remote endpoint. Cursor connects to either setup, letting your Cursor agent fetch live Jamf Pro details while you write code inside the editor.

Open the Cursor chat pane and type a forward slash or check the MCP status helper. You will see active Jamf Pro tools like `get_computer` and `list_buildings` ready for your Cursor agent to call.

The MCP Server only accesses Jamf Pro inventory metadata, such as computer names, serials, and department lists. Your Jamf Pro API keys are stored securely in your local Cursor environment, and no device configuration data is sent to external training models.
