Live Order Data Insertion

Need to write a function that shows an order's current location? Call `get_tracking_progress` and let the AI inject the live JSON response directly into your code. It's real data, not mock stubs. This lets you build functions against actual delivery status from Shipday.

Dispatch Logic in Code

Writing a dispatch script? Use `create_order` to generate the initial payload and include it right where your API call lives. The agent handles getting the order number you need. You can also use `update_order_status` when simulating job progress, making your code testable against live business logic.

Driver Management Integration

If you're building a team dashboard, you'll want to list who's available. The `list_drivers` tool pulls that roster directly into your editor context. Then, use `assign_driver` to simulate assigning jobs within your current coding session.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shipday-mcp": {
      "url": "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
    }

Common questions about Shipday MCP in Cursor

Cursor's agent mode lets you reference the server directly while writing code. Instead of just describing what you need, the AI calls `get_order` and uses the returned data to finish your function.

Absolutely. You can write test cases that call `get_tracking_progress`. The AI will execute the tool, and you'll see the live status updates injected right into your file.

Yeah. You bypass writing boilerplate API client code. The agent handles the networking calls for tools like `get_carrier_order`, letting you focus entirely on your business logic.

Yes, it's built for typed code environments. This means when you write a function, you're dealing with predictable data types from tools like `get_order`.

The server touches order details, including specific customer names, delivery addresses, and associated tracking progress information.
