Perplexity

Pull live ManyChat data into Cursor

Writing webhook handlers is miserable when you guess the payload structure. Cursor calls `get_subscriber` to fetch a real user profile from your database. The agent drops the exact JSON response into your editor. You see the actual data types for every field. This guarantees your code matches reality, preventing production bugs when parsing incoming messages.

Test automation triggers inside the editor

You need to know if a specific sequence actually works before deploying your API route. Your AI client can fire `trigger_flow` against a test user while you write the backend logic. First, it runs `list_flows` to grab the correct ID. Then it executes the trigger, letting you verify the WhatsApp message arrived without ever leaving your IDE.

Manage tags and fields with the MCP Server

Hardcoding custom field IDs leads to brittle applications. Cursor uses `list_custom_fields` to map your exact ManyChat schema directly into your TypeScript interfaces. When you need to modify a user state, the agent generates the API call using `add_tag` or `set_custom_field`. The generated code relies on live server data instead of outdated documentation.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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