How to Use the Mod.io MCP in Cursor

Q: Can the Cursor Agent automate mod publishing to Mod.io?

Yes, the agent uses addmod to upload new files from your workspace. You must provide your Mod.io OAuth token in your local environment configuration. The agent then handles the file bundling and API payload generation.

Q: How do I test mod retrieval code in my editor?

Ask the Cursor Agent to run a test query using getmod for a specific ID. The agent executes the tool, displays the JSON payload in your sidebar, and helps you write the parsing logic. This validates your integration code before you commit.

Q: How are my Mod.io credentials handled in Cursor?

Your Mod.io OAuth tokens and wallet data fetched via getmywallets are processed locally within your editor session. Vinkius hosts the execution environment in a secure V8 isolate sandbox. No credentials or game-specific data are cached on external servers.

Generate code using live mod.io game metadata and manage subscriptions directly from Cursor.

Write Mod.io MCP Server Integration Code in Cursor

This Mod.io MCP Server exposes `get_mods` and `get_mod_file` directly to the Cursor Agent. When you are writing mod loading scripts, the editor pulls actual file structures and metadata into your active workspace. You write code against live API payloads instead of static mock files. Cursor uses the real-time responses to auto-complete paths, file sizes, and dependency lists.

Edit Mod Metadata and Files Inside Cursor

The `edit_mod` tool lets you update your project details without leaving the Cursor editor interface. You prompt the AI agent to adjust descriptions, tags, or compatibility flags based on your current codebase changes. If you need to upload a new build, the agent coordinates with `add_mod` to push your workspace assets to the platform. This cuts out manual browser uploads, keeping your development loop tight.

Track Game Statistics in Your Cursor Sidebar

You can query active player metrics using `get_game_stats` to monitor how your mod is performing. Cursor displays download counts and active subscription numbers directly in the chat panel. By calling `get_my_ratings`, the editor compares user feedback against your recent commits. You instantly see which version updates improved your standing or triggered bugs.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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