About Together AI MCP Server
Connect your Together AI account to any AI agent and integrate bleeding-edge open-source models seamlessly into your workflow. Harness world-class inference speeds to query Llama, Mixtral, and more, or orchestrate specialized model fine-tuning jobs straight from your chat environment.
Cursor's Agent mode turns Together AI into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Together AI and it fetches, processes, and writes — all in a single agentic loop. 7 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
What you can do
- Model Discovery — Explore and list all currently supported models on the Together network, identifying the best engine for any NLP or vision task
- Conversational AI — Run chat completion cycles on advanced models simply by supplying a model ID directly from the chat prompt
- Vector Storage Preparation — Generate instant rich embeddings for input texts, ready to populate your analytical databases
- Creative Media — Instruct external diffusion models to generate images using detailed physical descriptions
- Custom Fine-Tuning — Provision custom training runs by indicating a base framework and dataset file, alongside tracking existing job statuses
The Together AI MCP Server exposes 7 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.
