How to Use the Keywords AI MCP in Cursor
Use Keywords AI in Cursor to inject live cost and performance data into your code development process.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Keywords AI MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Keywords AI to Cursor and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Integrate Keywords AI data into Cursor
Stop guessing your LLM costs while you write code. Use `get_usage_stats` to pull live data directly into your editor context. It helps you make informed decisions about which models to call. You get the hard numbers on latency and spend without leaving your workspace.
Debug API calls with Cursor
When your code hits an API snag, use `get_request` to see the full payload history. It shows you exactly what happened during your last model interaction. You can also use `list_requests_by_model` to compare performance across different endpoints. It's built for developers who need to fix issues fast.
Manage model inventory in Cursor
Keep your agent's model list accurate by calling `list_models` directly from your chat. It ensures your code is always using the correct model versions. You can also check your budget with `get_credits` before you trigger a large-scale refactor. It keeps your development cycle grounded in financial reality.
