How to Use the UUID & ULID Generator MCP in Cursor

Q: Can I use the UUID & ULID Generator in different projects within Cursor?

Yes. By managing your configuration in .cursor/mcp.json, you scope the tools per project, ensuring that Project A can't accidentally use an ID format meant for Project B.

Stop stubbing IDs. Live data generation for your code with Cursor.

Perplexity

Inject Real Identifiers into Code

The `generate_uuid` function provides a mathematically perfect v4 UUID. When you use the Agent mode, the AI calls this tool and injects the live response directly into the code block you're writing. No more mock data or hardcoded stubs; your code uses real, unique identifiers.

Time-Sortable IDs for Code Context

Need an ID that makes sense when sorted? The `generate_ulid` tool returns a time-ordered ULID. You can have the AI generate this and include it in your project code, knowing it will sort correctly later. This is great for building complex systems where chronological order matters.

Local Project Scope ID Generation

By placing the server config in `.cursor/mcp.json`, you make sure every contributor uses the same reliable source for IDs. The AI agent can then access `generate_uuid` and `generate_ulid` within the scope of your current project. It keeps the whole team standardized on ID generation.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "uuid-ulid-generator-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }
  }

Common questions about UUID & ULID Generator MCP in Cursor

You enable Agent mode, and then you prompt the AI to use the tools. The agent calls `generate_uuid` or `generate_ulid`, gets a live ID response, and inserts that data directly into your source code.

It's designed to be rock solid. It uses crypto randomness for UUIDs and a specific encoding for time-sortable ULIDs, so you never have to worry about collisions or invalid formats.

Yes. By managing your configuration in `.cursor/mcp.json`, you scope the tools per project, ensuring that Project A can't accidentally use an ID format meant for Project B.

The best way is to commit the MCP server configuration file, `.cursor/mcp.json`, into your project's root directory. Everyone pulls the same setup.

The server handles Identifiers (UUIDs and ULIDs). It never touches the source code itself, only generates the specific ID values that get written into your files.
