Bring Computer Vision
to Cursor
Learn how to connect EyePop.ai to Cursor and start using 10 AI agent tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code.
What is the EyePop.ai MCP Server?
Connect your EyePop.ai account to any AI agent and take full control of your real-time computer vision orchestration and automated visual intelligence through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Visual Analysis Orchestration — List and manage your entire portfolio of visual models (Pops) programmatically, retrieving detailed detection metadata
- Media Stream Intelligence — Programmatically trigger and monitor real-time media stream processing to maintain a perfectly coordinated visual knowledge pipeline
- Object Detection Architecture Monitoring — Access real-time status updates for detected objects and track confidence scores directly through your agent
- Metadata Management — Programmatically retrieve bounding box coordinates and classification IDs to maintain a perfectly coordinated data record
- Operational Monitoring — Verify account-level API connectivity and monitor visual processing volume directly through your agent for perfectly coordinated service scaling
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Retrieve your API Key from your EyePop.ai dashboard (Profile > API Keys)
3. Start orchestrating your visual intelligence from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
No more manual reviewing of video frames or missing critical object detections. Your AI acts as your dedicated visual coordinator and computer vision architect.
Who is this for?
- Security & Ops Managers — instantly retrieve detection summaries and monitor visual alerts using natural language commands
- Retail Analysts — verify individual foot traffic metadata and track customer behavior without leaving your creative workspace
- Developers — integrate high-speed EyePop.ai vision data into custom monitoring and alerting tools through simple AI queries

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns EyePop.ai into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from EyePop.ai and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 10 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Why teams choose Vinkius for EyePop.ai in Cursor
The EyePop.ai MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 10 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in Cursor only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

How Vinkius secures
EyePop.ai for Cursor
Every tool call from Cursor to the EyePop.ai MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find my EyePop.ai API Key?
Log in to your account, click on your profile, and copy your unique API Key from the developer section.
Can I check object detection results via AI?
Yes! The list_detections tool allows your agent to retrieve metadata including object classes and confidence scores for any media stream.
How do I list my active Pops?
Use the list_pops tool to retrieve your complete directory along with the unique identifiers for all managed visual pipelines.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
