Perplexity

Real-time routing in Cursor

Invoke `get_directions` directly from your editor to get accurate travel metrics. The AI uses these real responses to write production-ready routing logic. Stop relying on static mocks. Use `get_distance_matrix` to feed actual travel time data into your application's business logic while you code.

Optimize logistics in Cursor

Use `solve_optimization` to write algorithms that handle multi-stop delivery sequences. It calculates the best route order, which you can then commit directly to your codebase. This tool ensures your routing logic is mathematically sound before you deploy. It is a massive time-saver for developers working on dispatch software.

Geospatial data access in Cursor

Query `get_elevation` or `get_isochrones` to add spatial depth to your application. The AI can process these responses to generate UI components that display reachable areas or terrain data. It bridges the gap between raw geospatial data and your interface. You see the results in real-time as the AI writes the necessary implementation.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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

Common questions about Mapbox (Maps & Geospatial) MCP in Cursor

Create an mcp.json file in your project root or global settings directory. Add this MCP Server configuration, and Cursor will detect the tools immediately in Agent mode.

Absolutely. You can have the AI generate test cases that use live API responses from the server to verify your routing functions are working correctly.

You can configure it globally in your user settings or locally per project. Most teams prefer the local file so everyone shares the same tool access.

Data is transmitted only when you trigger a tool. Your API credentials are held securely in your local environment and never exposed to the public.

Ensure you are running the latest version of the editor to support MCP. You will need to enable Agent mode in the chat interface to start using the tools.
