About Pulumi MCP Server
Connect your Pulumi account to any AI agent and take full control of your infrastructure-as-code through natural conversation.
Cursor's Agent mode turns Pulumi into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Pulumi and it fetches, processes, and writes — all in a single agentic loop. 11 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
What you can do
- Organization Discovery — List organizations and retrieve their details, team settings and member info
- Stack Management — List, create and delete stacks (infrastructure environments) across all your projects
- Deployment Tracking — Monitor stack update history with status (succeeded, failed, in-progress), resource changes and error logs
- Output Inspection — View exported output values from the latest deployment (URLs, IPs, resource IDs)
- Tag Management — List and set custom tags on stacks for organization and filtering (environment, team, cost-center)
The Pulumi MCP Server exposes 11 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Cursor in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Cursor with the Pulumi MCP Server
Cursor AI Code Editor provides unique advantages when paired with Pulumi through the Model Context Protocol.
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP — no copy-pasting from external dashboards
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools
Pulumi + Cursor Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Cursor combined with the Pulumi MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Code generation with live data: ask Cursor to generate a security report module using live DNS and subdomain data fetched through MCP
Automated documentation: have Cursor query your API's tool schemas and generate TypeScript interfaces or OpenAPI specs automatically
Infrastructure-as-code: Cursor can fetch domain configurations and generate corresponding Terraform or CloudFormation templates
Test scaffolding: ask Cursor to pull real API responses via MCP and generate unit test fixtures from actual data
Pulumi MCP Tools for Cursor (11)
These 11 tools become available when you connect Pulumi to Cursor via MCP:
create_stack
A stack is an isolated, independently configurable instance of your Pulumi program. Requires the org name, project name and stack name (e.g. "staging", "prod"). Returns the created stack with its URL. Create a new Pulumi stack
delete_stack
The stack must be empty (no resources) or force deletion must be enabled. Provide the org name, project name and stack name. WARNING: this action is irreversible. Delete a Pulumi stack
get_current_user
Returns the user's GitHub login, avatar URL, email and name. Use this to verify your access token is working correctly and to see which identity the API calls will appear as. Get the currently authenticated Pulumi user
get_deployment
Provide the org name, project name, stack name and deployment version number. Get details for a specific Pulumi deployment
get_organization
Provide the organization name (slug). Get details for a specific Pulumi organization
get_stack
Provide the org name, project name and stack name. Get details for a specific Pulumi stack
get_stack_outputs
Outputs are values your Pulumi program exports, such as URLs, IP addresses, resource IDs and connection strings. Useful for discovering endpoint addresses and configuration values after infrastructure deployment. Get the exported output values from a Pulumi stack
list_deployments
Each deployment shows its version number, status (succeeded, failed, in-progress), start/end time, resource changes (created, updated, deleted) and the user who triggered it. Use this to audit infrastructure changes and track deployment success/failure patterns. List deployment history for a Pulumi stack
list_stack_tags
Tags are key-value metadata labels used for organizing, filtering and managing stacks (e.g. environment=prod, team=platform, cost-center=engineering). List tags on a Pulumi stack
list_stacks
Each stack represents an isolated, independently configurable instance of your infrastructure (e.g. dev, staging, prod). Returns stack name, project name, last update info, resource count and whether updates are in progress. List all stacks in a Pulumi organization
set_stack_tag
Tags are used for organizing, filtering and managing stacks (e.g. key="environment", value="prod", key="team", value="platform"). Provide the org name, project name, stack name, tag name and tag value. Set a tag on a Pulumi stack
Example Prompts for Pulumi in Cursor
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Cursor agent to start working with Pulumi immediately.
"Show me all stacks in my organization."
"What was the result of the latest deployment to my-infra/prod?"
"Show me the exported outputs from the prod stack."
