How to Use the MakePlans MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I add the MakePlans MCP server to my Cursor project?

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your repository root and define the server command. Once saved, Cursor loads the scheduling tools so you can call them in Agent mode.

Q: Can my Cursor agent modify existing appointments in MakePlans?

Yes, the agent can call getappointmentdetails to inspect a booking or listappointments to find specific IDs. However, actual modifications are limited to creating new records since there is no update tool in this server.

Feed live MakePlans booking data directly into your Cursor agent to generate real scheduling code.

Generate code using live MakePlans slots in Cursor

The `find_available_slots` tool lets your Cursor editor pull actual booking availability into your coding workspace. You can write your frontend calendar component while your Cursor agent tests it against real API responses. Instead of coding with static mock files, you get live JSON payloads from your MakePlans account. This live data helps you build accurate date parsers and UI states without leaving your editor.

Test customer creation logic within Cursor

You can execute `create_new_customer` directly from the Cursor chat panel to verify how your application handles user registration. The server returns the newly generated customer ID to your workspace instantly. Once you have that ID, the `create_new_appointment` tool lets you test booking confirmation scripts. Cursor uses these real database records to make sure your integration logic works perfectly before you commit code.

Inspect active resources inside the Cursor editor

The `list_booking_resources` tool retrieves your active staff and room lists directly into Cursor. This lets your agent inspect the exact resource schemas while you write scheduling constraints. You can also call `list_available_services` to map out service IDs in your code. Having these real identifiers handy prevents hardcoding errors and keeps your local configuration synced with MakePlans.

Setup guide

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

Common questions about MakePlans MCP in Cursor

Create a `.cursor/mcp.json` file in your repository root and define the server command. Once saved, Cursor loads the scheduling tools so you can call them in Agent mode.

Yes, the agent can call `get_appointment_details` to inspect a booking or `list_appointments` to find specific IDs. However, actual modifications are limited to creating new records since there is no update tool in this server.

Cursor executes tool calls individually based on your prompts. Because it only runs tools like `list_customers` when you explicitly ask, you stay well within standard API limits during development.

Yes, you can ask Cursor to generate the form markup. The editor uses `list_available_services` to populate the form fields with your actual booking options.

All customer names and appointment details are passed directly to the secure MakePlans API endpoint via the Vinkius proxy. No scheduling payload is saved on Vinkius servers, maintaining strict compliance with your data policies.
