Bring Proxy Rotation
to Cursor
Learn how to connect Residential Proxies 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 Residential Proxies MCP Server?
Connect your AppVidLab Residential Proxies account to any AI agent and take full control of your automated web data collection and proxy rotation workflows through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Proxy Pool Orchestration — List and manage your entire high-fidelity database of working residential proxies programmatically, retrieving detailed IP and port technical metadata
- Geo-Targeting Intelligence — Programmatically query and monitor proxies from specific countries to coordinate your international data mining strategy in real-time
- Rotation Architecture — Access high-fidelity rotating IP strings to maintain a perfectly coordinated audit trail of your scraping sessions and bypass bot detection
- Availability Monitoring — Access real-time status updates and track proxy health directly through your agent for instant operational reporting
- Infrastructure Verification — Verify account-level API connectivity and monitor proxy usage directly through your agent for perfectly coordinated service scaling
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Retrieve your RapidAPI Key from your RapidAPI dashboard (AppVidLab Residential Proxies API section)
3. Start orchestrating your data collection from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
No more manual copy-pasting of proxy strings or missing connectivity drops. Your AI acts as your dedicated network coordinator and data architecture architect.
Who is this for?
- Data Engineers — instantly retrieve proxy lists and monitor rotation health using natural language commands
- Web Scrapers — verify geo-targeting metadata and track proxy availability without leaving your creative workspace
- Growth Leads — integrate high-speed residential proxy data into custom data extraction pipelines through simple AI queries

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Residential Proxies into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Residential Proxies 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

Frequently asked questions
How do I find my RapidAPI Key?
Log in to RapidAPI, navigate to the AppVidLab Residential Proxies API page, and copy your unique API Key from the endpoints section.
Can I target specific countries via AI?
Yes! The list_working_proxies tool supports a country_code parameter to retrieve high-fidelity proxies from specific locations.
Are the proxies rotating?
Yes, the API provides high-fidelity residential IP strings that rotate to ensure anonymity and maintain technical scraping performance.
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.
