Get Build Context in Code

You don't want to switch windows just to check status. By calling `get_build_details`, your AI client pulls the full Travis CI build report and injects it directly into your code context. This means you can write logic that checks a build’s success state using live data, not mock variables.

List All Project Repos

Need to know what repos exist before writing the deployment script? Use `list_travis_repositories` to fetch all configured repositories on Travis CI. This gives you a clean list of slugs, which you can then feed into other functions like `get_repository_details` for more context.

Initiate New Builds

When your local code changes and you need an immediate test run, use the agent to call `trigger_new_build`. Just provide the repo slug, branch name, and a message. This action kicks off a new Travis CI job on the specified branch, letting you verify changes without manual overhead.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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