Real-World Use Cases

01

Code generation with live data: ask Cursor to generate a security report module using live DNS and subdomain data fetched through MCP

02

Automated documentation: have Cursor query your API's tool schemas and generate TypeScript interfaces or OpenAPI specs automatically

03

Infrastructure-as-code: Cursor can fetch domain configurations and generate corresponding Terraform or CloudFormation templates

04

Test scaffolding: ask Cursor to pull real API responses via MCP and generate unit test fixtures from actual data

Enterprise Security for Cursor

Every MCP server connected to Cursor through Vinkius runs inside a hardened governance layer.

V8 Sandbox Isolation

Every MCP call executes inside a disposable V8 isolate with strict memory and CPU limits. No shared state between requests.

DLP Redaction

Personally identifiable information is automatically masked before it reaches the LLM. Credit cards, emails, and SSNs never leave the perimeter.

Kill Switch

Instantly revoke any server connection from the dashboard. Active sessions terminate within seconds, no restart required.

Ed25519 Audit Chains

Every tool call is cryptographically signed with Ed25519 keys. Tamper-evident logs for compliance and forensic review.

Financial Circuit Breakers

Set per-server and per-user spend limits. Automatic shutdown when thresholds are exceeded to prevent runaway costs.

SIEM Integration

Stream audit events to your existing security infrastructure. Native support for Splunk, Datadog, and webhook-based SIEM pipelines.

Why Use Cursor with MCP Servers

01

Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context

02

Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards

03

MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment

04

VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Common Cursor MCP Troubleshooting

01

Tools not appearing in Cursor

Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
02

Server shows as disconnected

Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.

Cursor MCP FAQ

01

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.
02

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.
03

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.
04

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
