Live infrastructure context for Cursor

Stop guessing your database names or worker configurations while writing code. Use `list_databases` and `list_workers` to inject real, current infrastructure state into your editor context. The AI sees exactly what is running on your servers, not outdated stubs. This leads to code that actually matches your production environment.

Automated deployment workflows in Cursor

You can now wire your deployment process directly into your coding session. Once you have finished your changes, call `deploy_site` to push them to production without switching windows. It removes the friction of manual deployment steps. Your agent handles the trigger while you keep your hands on the keyboard.

Manage server recipes within Cursor

Keep your server provisioning scripts consistent by querying your available options via `list_recipes`. You can quickly check what is available before you decide how to update your server configuration. This ensures you are using approved scripts for your team. It keeps your environment setup predictable and easy to trace.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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