How to Use the Moneybird MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I add the Moneybird server to Cursor?

Create a .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root to register this MCP Server. Once saved, Cursor loads the tools, allowing your agent to run financial commands.

Q: Can Cursor automatically write test cases using my Moneybird data?

Yes, Cursor reads live invoice schemas via listsalesinvoices to write accurate unit tests. Your agent uses real payloads instead of guessing the API structure.

Q: How does Cursor handle Moneybird rate limits during testing?

The server monitors API limits using checkapihealth to prevent throttling. Cursor displays these limits in the chat so you do not exceed the 150 requests per 5 minutes threshold.

Q: Can I manage product catalogs within the editor?

Yes, you run listcatalogproducts to pull your active product catalog directly into your workspace. This tool helps you match app products to accounting items.

Build and test billing integrations inside Cursor using live Moneybird data directly in your active codebase.

Perplexity

Generate live invoices in Cursor using this MCP Server

The `create_sales_invoice` tool inserts real invoice records into your test or production environments while you write code in Cursor. Your agent writes billing scripts and tests them against live draft parameters instead of static mock files. You verify the result by calling `list_sales_invoices` in the Cursor chat panel. This workflow eliminates the need to switch back and forth between your code editor and a web dashboard to verify API payloads.

Sync ledger categories with active code

The `list_ledger_accounts` tool retrieves your exact chart of accounts directly into Cursor. Your agent uses this live list to map database models to your actual accounting categories as you write your backend logic. It prevents mapping errors by matching database entries against active ledger IDs. This live connection ensures your code uses valid accounting codes before you commit any changes to your repository.

Inspect customer records inside your workspace

The `list_crm_contacts` tool exposes your entire customer registry to the Cursor agent via this MCP connection. When writing sync scripts, your agent inspects real contact structures to write accurate serialization code. If a contact is missing, the agent uses this data to write fail-safe creation logic. Having access to actual CRM payloads speeds up integration testing and reduces runtime errors.

Setup guide

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