Run Live Warranty Checks with MCP Server

When you need to write code that checks eligibility, the `check_product_eligibility` tool provides real-time answers. The AI agent calls this function and injects the true boolean result into your script. Instead of using placeholder data, your generated functions use live coverage status, making your application accurate.

Process Claims in Agent Mode

The `create_claim` tool lets you submit a claim, and the AI agent uses that successful API response to build out the subsequent code logic. This is far better than stubs or mock data. You can also use `get_warranty` to grab plan details, which then informs how your generated code handles different coverage levels.

Manage Policies and Sync Data

`list_policies` retrieves all policy records, which the AI uses as context when writing data processing functions. It knows exactly what policies exist. If you're syncing inventory, `sync_products` provides the live product list that your code needs to process against warranty rules.

Setup guide

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