How to Use the Tally MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I list all Tally forms in my project scope with Cursor?

Use listforms. The agent calls this tool and includes the resulting form array directly into your code editor, so you don't have to copy/paste anything.

Q: Can I pull a specific Tally submission record using Cursor?

Yep. Just prompt the AI to use getsubmission and provide the necessary IDs. The live data response shows up right where you're writing, letting you test your functions instantly.

Q: If I need to delete a Tally submission, how do I write that?

You call deletesubmission within the agent context. It handles the API request, and you'll get confirmation or an error message in your code output.

Q: Does Cursor help me find different Tally workspaces?

It does. Running listworkspaces shows all available workspaces. You can then use the workspace ID when listing forms to narrow down your scope.

Inject live Tally data context directly into your code using Cursor.

Integrate form metadata into your logic.

When writing a script, you can call `get_form` to grab the schema of a Tally form. This lets you write conditional code that expects specific data types or fields from the front end. For example, if your code needs to validate an address field, fetching the metadata first ensures you use the exact required format.

Audit and process submission payloads.

You can write agent calls that use `list_submissions` to pull a list of recent responses. The AI injects this array directly into your code block, letting you iterate over the data immediately. Need to check one specific entry? Use `get_submission` and pipe the resulting JSON object into your function for processing.

Map out Tally environments in real-time.

Before running any logic, you should map the scope. Calling `list_workspaces` gives you all available contexts, ensuring your script targets the right environment. Furthermore, using `get_me` provides your user context, which is crucial if your code needs to log who ran the audit.

Setup guide

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

.cursor/mcp.json

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