How to Use the Woodpecker CI MCP in Cursor

Q: What if I need to delete a repository using Woodpecker CI and Cursor?

The deleterepo tool handles the removal of an entire repository from your system. This is useful for cleaning up old, unused projects within your coding session.

Q: Does this MCP Server support reading user data with Woodpecker CI and Cursor?

Yes, you can use getuser to identify the currently authenticated developer. This context is crucial when generating code that needs to reference who started a specific build or commit.

Q: How do I check for organization permissions using Woodpecker CI and Cursor?

Use getorgpermissions to verify what access level your user has across different organizational boundaries. This prevents the agent from trying actions it's not allowed to perform.

Triggering Builds from the MCP Server

The `trigger_pipeline` tool lets your AI client kick off a manual pipeline run. When paired with Cursor's agent mode, it sends live API data—like the resulting build ID or commit hash—directly into your code snippet for immediate use.

Managing Repositories in Cursor

Need to check if a project exists before writing setup code? Use `lookup_repo` to find a repository by its slug. You can also get full details with `get_repo`. This lets your agent write more accurate, context-aware code that won't break because of missing inputs.

Monitoring Agents and Status

`list_agents` gives a snapshot of all active build agents. If you need to know what tasks are waiting, `list_agent_tasks` shows the queue for a specific agent. This capability helps your Cursor-powered workflow confirm system readiness before executing critical code.

Setup guide

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