Integrate Communications APIs in Cursor

Need to send a message and immediately use the confirmation details? You call `send_sms`, `send_viber_message`, or `send_whatsapp_message`. The API response—like a success status or message ID—gets injected right into your code block. This means you're not dealing with mock data. Your agent uses live Vonage context to write functional, ready-to-run comms logic.

Handle 2FA Logic Directly in Cursor

Building authentication flow? Use `start_verification` to trigger the OTP code and then use `check_verification_code` to validate user input. These tools are perfect for writing state-aware backend logic. If the process gets messy, you can wrap up any active request using `cancel_verification_request` before continuing your development.

Manage and Price Numbers in Cursor

Before sending anything, you need to know what numbers you have. The `list_rented_numbers` tool lets your agent check all virtual numbers on the account. You can also get pricing details by checking `get_country_pricing` for a specific country code. It's also easy to fetch billing info using `get_account_balance`.

Setup guide

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