Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) MCP Server?
Connect your Wakapi instance to any AI agent to monitor your development workflow through natural conversation. Wakapi is a self-hosted, open-source alternative to WakaTime that tracks your coding activity across different editors and languages.
What you can do
- Coding Statistics — Retrieve detailed stats including languages, editors, and operating systems used over various time ranges using
get_stats. - Activity Summaries — Fetch granular summaries of your work for specific date ranges or individual projects with
get_summaries. - Project Listing — View all projects you have tracked time for using
list_projectsto keep your portfolio or billable hours organized. - Heartbeat Tracking — Manually send coding activity heartbeats via
send_heartbeatsto ensure your timeline is always accurate.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Wakapi API URL and API Key
- Start analyzing your coding habits from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Individual Developers — track your own productivity and see which languages you spend the most time on.
- Engineering Managers — get high-level summaries of team activity and project distribution.
- Freelancers — accurately report time spent on specific client projects without manual timers.
Built-in capabilities (4)
Retrieve coding statistics for a user
Retrieve a detailed summary of activity
List all projects tracked by the user
Provide a heartbeat object or an array of heartbeat objects. Send coding activity heartbeats to Wakapi
Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Wakapi (WakaTime Alternative) and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 4 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 can I see my coding statistics for the last 7 days?
You can use the get_stats tool and specify 'last_7_days' as the range. The agent will return a breakdown of your languages, editors, and projects for that period.
Can I get a list of all projects I have ever tracked in Wakapi?
Yes! Use the list_projects tool. It will retrieve all project names associated with your account, allowing you to see the scope of your tracked work.
Is it possible to track activity for a specific date range?
Absolutely. Use the get_summaries tool by providing a 'start' and 'end' date in YYYY-MM-DD format. You can even filter this by a specific project name.
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.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
