Write code using live data via the Cursor e-Stat MCP Server

`search_japan_statistics` hooks directly into Cursor's Agent mode to find Japanese government tables while you write code. You don't have to write mock datasets because Cursor queries the live e-Stat database directly. The Cursor agent calls the e-Stat tool, grabs the table metadata, and writes functions tailored to the exact structure of the Japanese database.

Generate working Cursor parsers for real Japanese e-Stat tables

`get_japan_stats_data` retrieves the actual numbers, time periods, and regional values from e-Stat directly into your active Cursor editor buffer. This tool feeds raw, categorized Japanese data directly into your Cursor code. Your Cursor agent uses these real-time e-Stat numbers to write, test, and debug your data processing scripts on the spot. You see exactly how your Cursor functions handle the official e-Stat payload.

Configure your Japanese e-Stat database access inside Cursor

Setting up `get_japan_stats_data` and `search_japan_statistics` inside Cursor requires adding a simple entry in your configuration file. This lets you limit e-Stat database access to a single Cursor project or make it available globally across your entire development environment. Cursor manages the active e-Stat connection in the background. Your Cursor agent invokes the statistics tools whenever you ask questions about Japanese economic trends.

Setup guide

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