Perplexity

Injecting product context into your code.

The `get_product(id)` tool allows the AI to fetch full listing details and inject that live JSON response directly into the function you're writing. You don't get mock data; you get real catalog information for immediate coding context. Need a specific piece of metadata? Use `get_brand()` or `get_category()` within your code block, and the agent handles calling the tool and feeding the result back into your function signature.

Updating inventory through live API calls.

You can write logic to handle stock management. The `manage_stock` tool lets the AI update a SKU's available quantity, generating working code that executes the necessary API call and handles the response. Want to create a new product record? Use `save_product()` in your script. This moves beyond simple data retrieval; it builds write operations right into your developer workflow.

Searching listings for code context.

If you're writing a search utility, the agent uses `search_products` to pull results by text, brand ID, or category ID. This live data populates variables in your current file. It’s useful when developing e-commerce tooling; instead of hardcoding IDs, your code pulls them from the catalog via the MCP Server.

Setup guide

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