How to Use the Mailshake MCP in Cursor

Q: Can Cursor pull Mailshake message content into my code?

Yes. The editor uses getmessagecontent alongside listoutreachmessages to fetch real email bodies. This helps the AI write accurate regex patterns for your text parsing functions.

Q: Will Cursor accidentally pause my Mailshake campaigns?

Not without your permission. While the pauseoutreachcampaign tool is available, Agent mode requires explicit approval for destructive actions. You control when the API call fires.

Q: Why is the Mailshake integration failing to add prospects in Cursor?

The addprospectstocampaign tool expects a strictly formatted JSON body. Ask the agent to validate your payload schema against the API requirements before making the request.

Write code that interacts with your Mailshake campaigns using this MCP Server in Cursor agent mode.

Perplexity

Build integrations with live campaign data

The `list_outreach_campaigns` tool feeds real Mailshake environment variables directly into Cursor. When you write a script to sync marketing data, the AI fetches your actual campaign IDs. You stop guessing which UUID belongs to which sequence. Drilling down is handled by `get_campaign_details`. Your agent reads the exact configuration of your active outreach while drafting the surrounding API logic. The code generated is accurate because it references your live setup.

Cursor MCP Server for lead pipelines

The `list_campaign_leads` tool injects qualified prospect data straight into your editor context. If you are building a custom CRM dashboard, Cursor pulls real lead records to structure the frontend components. You see the actual data shape immediately. Need to map user timelines? The `get_lead_history` tool retrieves the chronological events for specific contacts. Your agent uses this history to write perfectly typed TypeScript interfaces for your internal tools.

Automate prospect ingestion

The `add_prospects_to_campaign` tool requires a JSON body with recipient details to push contacts into Mailshake. Cursor reads your local CSV files and writes the exact parsing script needed to format that payload. You get a working ingestion pipeline in minutes. To verify the import, the editor calls `list_campaign_recipients`. The AI confirms the test data landed correctly before you commit the code. You build and test the entire workflow without leaving your IDE.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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