How to Use the Loops MCP in Cursor
Build and debug your Loops transactional email workflows directly inside Cursor while writing your application code.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Loops MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect Loops 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.
Write transactional email code with Cursor agent
The `send_transactional_email` tool allows your Cursor AI agent to test live Loops templates using your active code variables. The Cursor editor executes the call directly against the Loops API so you do not need mock data. While editing your sign-up files, you can ask the Cursor agent to fire a test Loops notification to your inbox. This MCP Server setup helps you verify your Loops template data variables match your local Cursor database schemas.
Sync database models with Loops contacts in Cursor
The `create_contact` tool lets Cursor inspect your local user models and generate the matching Loops contact creation logic. The Cursor agent calls this tool to verify that your code properties align with your Loops audience fields. If you update your database schema in Cursor, the editor uses `update_contact` to ensure the changes propagate to your Loops user profiles. This prevents broken Loops pipelines before you commit your code in Cursor.
Debug Loops delivery events inside your Cursor IDE using MCP Server
The `send_event` tool triggers automated user journeys in Loops directly from the Cursor chat panel. You can test how your backend event tracking behaves by firing test Loops payloads while writing your code in Cursor. If an event fails to trigger, Cursor uses `list_transactional_emails` to retrieve the recent Loops delivery log. This lets you debug your Loops integration without leaving your Cursor editor.
