What is the Fleetio MCP Server?
Connect your Fleetio account to any AI agent and automate your fleet management workflows through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Fleetio provides a centralized platform for tracking vehicle data, maintenance schedules, fuel consumption, and compliance. Now, you can monitor your fleet operations directly through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Vehicle Management — List all vehicles in your fleet, fetch detailed metadata including VIN and license plates, and retrieve specific vehicle profiles.
- Maintenance Tracking — Monitor reported issues, list active work orders, and fetch upcoming service reminders to keep your fleet in top shape.
- Meter & Data Entry — Record new odometer or hour meter readings and report new vehicle issues directly from the agent.
- Fuel Monitoring — Retrieve historical fuel entries to track consumption and costs across your operations.
- Directory Access — List organization contacts (drivers, managers) and vendors/service providers for better team and supplier context.
- Real-time Monitoring — Fetch specific maintenance reminders or issue details to ensure operational safety and compliance.
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server through the Vinkius Marketplace
2. Enter your Fleetio API Key and Account Token (found in Settings > Manage API Keys)
3. Start managing your fleet operations from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- Fleet Managers — quickly check vehicle statuses or upcoming maintenance while planning operations.
- Operations Supervisors — get a real-time overview of reported issues and work orders through simple AI commands.
- Logistics Coordinators — automate the retrieval of driver contact information and vendor details for faster coordination.

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Fleetio into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Fleetio and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 12 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

Frequently asked questions
How do I update a vehicle's odometer reading using the agent?
You can use the 'create_meter_entry' tool. Simply provide the Vehicle ID and the new meter value. The agent will record the entry in Fleetio immediately, which helps keeping maintenance schedules accurate.
Can I see upcoming service reminders for my entire fleet?
Yes! The 'list_service_reminders' tool retrieves all active maintenance reminders. You can ask your agent to sort these by date or priority to identify which vehicles need attention next.
What format should I use for reporting a new vehicle issue?
Use the 'create_issue' tool by providing the Vehicle ID and a summary of the problem. You can also add an optional detailed description to give technicians more context about the reported fault.
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.
