How to Use the Kintone MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I add the Kintone MCP Server to my Cursor project?

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root and add the server under the mcpServers key. Once saved, Cursor Agent mode can instantly call the Kintone tools during your coding sessions.

Q: Can Cursor automatically map my TypeScript types to my Kintone fields?

Yes. Cursor calls listformfields to fetch your Kintone field codes and types, then generates matching TypeScript interfaces directly in your active file.

Q: How does Cursor handle bulk Kintone data deletion safely?

Cursor uses deleterecords with an explicit array of numeric IDs. The Cursor agent will ask for your confirmation before executing the Kintone deletion to prevent accidental data loss in your workspace.

Q: Can I inspect my Kintone application layout grid inside Cursor?

Yes. Cursor runs getapplayout to retrieve the visual positioning of your Kintone form fields. This helps you build front-end components that match the layout of your database forms.

Let Cursor write code using live database structures and records pulled directly from your Kintone apps.

Generate Code from Real Kintone Schemas

The `list_form_fields` tool exposes the exact field codes and data types of your Kintone application directly to your Cursor editor. Cursor uses this schema to generate typed code, avoiding the typical guesswork of manual Kintone API integration. This means your Cursor agent writes functions that map perfectly to your live Kintone database structure. Instead of writing code against outdated API documentation, this MCP Server lets Cursor inspect your live Kintone setup. The Cursor editor reads the output of `get_app_details` to configure your local Kintone environment variables instantly.

Test Record Operations Directly in Cursor

The `add_record` tool lets you insert test data into your Kintone application without leaving your Cursor code editor. Your Cursor agent executes writes during debugging sessions, verifying that your application logic handles Kintone data structures correctly. If a test run fails, `delete_records` cleans up the generated Kintone rows using their IDs directly from Cursor. With Cursor, you can write a backend function and immediately test it against your live Kintone workspace. The Cursor agent runs `update_record` to verify that your data patching logic behaves exactly as expected under real-world conditions.

Querying Live Kintone Records inside Cursor

The `list_records` tool pulls live production or staging data from Kintone directly into your Cursor chat. You can run queries to verify that your local filters match the actual Kintone dataset, ensuring your Cursor code logic handles empty states and pagination correctly. To speed up your coding, this MCP tool retrieves specific Kintone rows using `get_record` so you can compare your local object models against the actual JSON returned by the database. This eliminates the need to run separate API clients while working in Cursor.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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