Automated vehicle data for Cursor

The Kelley Blue Book Valuation MCP Server lets your agent pull real-time pricing data and inject it directly into your codebase. Use `get_vehicle_valuation` to fetch numbers without writing mock functions. This keeps your logic grounded in live market reality. Your agent writes code based on actual API responses, not placeholders.

Build apps with live market trends

When you need to build dashboards that react to the market, call `get_market_trends` within your agent session. It provides the delta you need to calculate value shifts. Your code gets accurate data immediately. You spend less time debugging data sources and more time building features that matter.

Query vehicle inventory programmatically

Use `search_vehicles` to find specific models based on your search criteria. It returns a list of matching vehicles you can iterate through in your script. Follow up with `list_trim_styles` to narrow down the exact configuration. It turns a manual research task into a single automated function call.
