Query Mailchimp audiences in Cursor

Use `list_audiences` to pull active list IDs into your project context. This lets you reference real subscriber counts directly in your documentation or code comments. It removes the need to copy-paste stats manually. You get an accurate view of your audience size that updates every time you run the tool.

Manage members through Cursor

Add new leads to your system with `add_member`. By hooking this into your codebase, you ensure new users are synced to your list the moment they sign up. Use `search_members` to verify status. It helps you catch duplicates or invalid contacts before they cause issues in your marketing funnel.

Automate campaign logic in Cursor

Build your email logic using `create_campaign`. You can define the structure and content as code, then let the agent push it to the platform. Check your work with `list_campaigns` to confirm everything is live. It makes your marketing pipeline part of your actual development environment.

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".
