Can I record a single event using this agent?

Yes, the `record_event` tool allows you to send a JSON object representing your event directly to any named collection.

How do I calculate the average value of a property?

Use the `average_property` tool by specifying the collection name and the numeric target property you want to average.

Is it possible to see my project's collections?

Absolutely. The `list_collections` tool retrieves a list of all event types (collections) currently stored in your Keen project.

About Keen MCP Server

Connect your Keen.io project to any AI agent to automate data collection and analysis. This MCP server allows your agent to record events and run complex analytical queries (count, sum, average, etc.) directly from natural language.

Cursor's Agent mode turns Keen into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Keen and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 10 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.

What you can do

Event Recording — Send custom event data to any collection in your project instantly
Compute Metrics — Run aggregation queries like count, sum, and average on your event data
Data Discovery — List all event collections, saved queries, and cached datasets
Insight Extraction — Retrieve unique values for specific properties to understand data distribution
Project Oversight — Get comprehensive metadata and configuration details for your Keen project

The Keen MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Cursor in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Cursor with the Keen MCP Server

Cursor AI Code Editor provides unique advantages when paired with Keen through the Model Context Protocol.

Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context

Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards

MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment

VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Keen + Cursor Use Cases

Practical scenarios where Cursor combined with the Keen MCP Server delivers measurable value.

Code generation with live data: ask Cursor to generate a security report module using live DNS and subdomain data fetched through MCP

Automated documentation: have Cursor query your API's tool schemas and generate TypeScript interfaces or OpenAPI specs automatically

Infrastructure-as-code: Cursor can fetch domain configurations and generate corresponding Terraform or CloudFormation templates

Test scaffolding: ask Cursor to pull real API responses via MCP and generate unit test fixtures from actual data

Keen + Cursor FAQ

Common questions about integrating Keen MCP Server with Cursor.

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
