Build recipe apps with your Cursor MCP.

`convert_volume_to_weight` feeds accurate mass calculations directly into your codebase. You skip writing manual conversion logic for standard kitchen measurements. Agent mode takes a list of volumetric inputs from your project and replaces them with precise gram values. The AI writes the actual code using live data rather than mock variables.

Dynamic density variables for cooking logic.

Triggering `get_ingredient_density` grabs the exact baseline weight for one cup of a targeted item. Different baking components require specific mass profiles. You can pipe this directly into your application state. Cursor reads the response and structures a JSON object matching the culinary standard.

Populating test data with real items.

Executing `search_ingredients` finds matching pantry items to populate your database seeds. Hardcoding food types wastes developer time. Your agent grabs the results and formats them into your SQL insert statements. The final output provides realistic test data without scraping cooking blogs.

Setup guide

Set up Ingredient Weight Converter 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 Ingredient Weight Converter 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 Ingredient Weight Converter transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Ingredient Weight Converter tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.

.cursor/mcp.json

  "mcpServers": {
    "ingredient-weight-converter-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"

Common questions about Ingredient Weight Converter MCP in Cursor

Create an mcp.json file in your project root. Add the MCP command or remote URL and enable Agent mode in the chat panel.

It provides the raw data. Your agent uses that exact mass data to write functions that handle the math dynamically in your app.

You can prompt the agent to loop through an array of recipe objects. It will fetch the mass for each item and rewrite the file.

Items like brown sugar vary by up to 30 percent depending on compression. The tool needs that context to return an accurate gram value.

Cursor only transmits the specific food strings you highlight or mention. Your local project files remain secure and untouched by the external conversion database.
