How to Use the Kavak MCP in Cursor

Q: Can Cursor test the Kavak API directly?

It absolutely can. The agent fires off tools like getmarketpricing and reads the live response. It uses that output to write your code.

Q: Will Cursor show me Kavak showroom locations?

Yes. Running listlocations returns addresses and operating hours. The agent can use this to populate a map component for you.

Build auto market apps in Cursor by injecting live Kavak MCP Server inventory and pricing data straight into your codebase.

Pull live Kavak inventory into Cursor

Agent mode fires `search_vehicles` to grab real-time listings straight from the Mexican market. Writing scraper code is a waste of time. Your editor sees the exact JSON schema and writes parsing logic based on actual data. Feeding the exact manufacturer strings to your frontend requires `list_makes` and `list_models`. Cursor writes the dropdown components using the real available options. You never have to hardcode another car brand list.

Code with real 240-point inspection records

Calling `get_vehicle_inspection` pulls real 240-point check results straight into your workspace. Mock data won't help you build a reliable UI for mechanical reports. Cursor examines the payload structure and generates the exact TypeScript interfaces you need. Executing `get_vehicle_history` returns the hard ownership and accident data. The MCP Server formats the API response into your application's state management system. You watch the integration happen without leaving the IDE.

Embed financial logic with this MCP Server

Cursor calls `estimate_trade_in` to see exactly how the API weighs mileage, year, and condition. You can build trade-in calculators that actually work. The agent writes the validation logic based on the constraints it observes from the Mexican market. Figuring out loan parameters is handled by `get_financing_options`. The AI pulls the real interest rates and terms. It then generates the exact React hooks or Python functions required to calculate those payments in your app.

Setup guide

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

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

Common questions about Kavak MCP in Cursor

Create a mcp.json file in your .cursor directory. Add the server command and flip Agent mode on in the chat panel.

It absolutely can. The agent fires off tools like `get_market_pricing` and reads the live response. It uses that output to write your code.

Yes. Running `list_locations` returns addresses and operating hours. The agent can use this to populate a map component for you.

You just need your Vinkius endpoint token. We handle the underlying authentication so your editor can query the marketplace immediately.

Location data remains entirely ephemeral. The zero-trust sandbox passes your street address straight to the API for routing, then immediately purges the memory state so nothing is stored on our servers.
