Inject live tax rates into your code

When you write a function that needs tax context, call `get_country_vat_rates`. The AI agent uses the real response data—not mock stubs—to complete your code. You instantly have accurate financial calculations. Alternatively, if you just need to know what rates exist globally, use `list_all_vat_rates` and inject that list directly into a config file.

Validate VAT IDs for coding context with Cursor

Need to write code that accepts a validated ID? Use the `validate_vat_number` tool. The agent confirms validity and provides company metadata right into your snippet, so you don't have to switch contexts. It’s reliable; it validates IDs and fetches data for companies using `get_company_by_vat`.

Audit usage metrics inside Cursor

The `get_api_usage` tool lets your agent check current VATNode API consumption. This is critical when building batch processors that make many calls. It also supports checking general tax rules for a nation via `get_country_tax_info`, making sure your code handles regional compliance.

Setup guide

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