Fetch live deployment data in Cursor

Stop relying on stale documentation when you need to know what is running in production. Use `list_software_deployments` to get the latest state of your environment. Your agent uses this data to write code that aligns with the current production reality rather than outdated assumptions.

Report incidents from the Cursor editor

Trigger `record_new_incident` the moment you identify a production issue while debugging. This keeps your incident logs accurate without forcing you to leave your IDE. It ensures that your tracking system captures the exact time and context of the failure as you see it.

Use LinearB metrics for code context in Cursor

Run `query_software_metrics` to pull performance data while you work on architectural changes. It provides the hard numbers you need to justify refactoring decisions. Seeing these metrics in your chat window helps you prioritize code that actually moves the needle on delivery speed.

Setup guide

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