Standardize Your Results

Stop hard-coding '7 minutes' into your recipe app. Use the `get_texture_descriptions` tool to fetch the canonical list of supported doneness levels, from soft to hard. Your agent can present these options in a UI or use them to validate input. This ensures every calculation starts from a known, consistent state.

Precise Timing, On Demand

This isn't a kitchen timer; it's a calculation engine for your code. When your agent needs a boiling time, it calls this MCP with the egg's properties. The MCP uses `validate_egg_parameters` to reject bad inputs, then feeds the clean data to `calculate_boiling_time`. The result is a precise duration your code can use immediately. No more magic numbers.

An MCP Server for Your Agent

In Cursor, your AI agent can call this MCP server to get real data for the code it's writing. Need to build a function for a smart kitchen? The agent can call the timer and write the Go or Python code that uses the real output. This closes the gap between a prototype and production code. Your agent works with real logic from the start, not placeholder data.

Setup guide

Set up Egg Boiling Timer MCP in Cursor

Prerequisites

Cursor installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".
2

Add the Egg Boiling Timer MCP

Cursor will create or open .cursor/mcp.json in your project root. Paste the JSON snippet on the right. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Enable Agent mode

Open Composer (Cmd+I / Ctrl+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown at the top. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode.
4

Verify the connection

Ask Cursor something like "List my recent Egg Boiling Timer transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Egg Boiling Timer tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.

Common questions about Egg Boiling Timer MCP in Cursor

In Agent mode, you can instruct the AI to use this tool. For example: "Get the boiling time for a large, refrigerated egg to be soft-boiled, and write a function for it."

While configured in Cursor, this MCP is for interactive development. For CI/CD, you'd want to use a CLI-focused client to call the same MCP.

You tell the agent "soft", "medium", or "hard". It maps that string to the correct parameters for the calculation.

You can configure it either way in your mcp.json. Point it to the Vinkius URL for a managed remote MCP, or run it locally if you have the binary.

It accesses nothing from your project. The only data processed is what your agent explicitly sends in a tool call: egg size, temperature, and desired texture. The transaction is stateless and your code is never seen by the MCP.
