Perplexity

Code with real Mainstay (AdmitHub) data

Stop using mock data when you build student-facing features. Use `list_contacts` to get actual student records and feed them into your development workflow in Cursor. Your agent uses this data to write code that handles real-world edge cases. You see how your application behaves with actual message history and custom metadata.

Sync campaigns with your UI

Query `list_campaigns` to display active engagement tracks in your project dashboard. This keeps your frontend logic in sync with your actual marketing schedule. Your agent reads the campaign IDs and metadata to scaffold your UI components correctly. You get a functional build faster because the data driving it is live.

Validate metadata fields in Cursor

Use `list_custom_fields` to inspect the schema of your student records. You can define your interfaces and types based on the actual fields present in your database. This ensures your code won't break when it hits production. The agent checks the field names against your logic to prevent runtime errors.
