Cursor - VMEG Open API

Use VMEG from Cursor’s Agent chat to translate media without leaving your editor.

Manual setup

Prerequisites

Cursor installed (latest version recommended)
A VMEG account — see Pricing for credits
An API Key from API Configuration

Add the MCP server

In Cursor Settings → Tools & MCP → New MCP Server, or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vmeg": {
      "url": "https://www.vmeg.ai/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_API_KEY with the key from API Configuration. If you already have other MCP servers, add vmeg alongside them inside the existing mcpServers block. Cursor auto-detects changes to mcp.json. If vmeg doesn’t appear, toggle it off/on or click refresh in Cursor Settings → Tools & MCP (reloading the window via Cmd+Shift+P → Developer: Reload Window also works).

Verify

Open Cursor Settings → MCP and confirm vmeg is listed with tools enabled. In chat, ask 「What MCP tools do you have?」 to confirm VMEG tools appear.

Usage

In Cursor Agent chat, attach or reference a local file and request translation:

Upload this video and translate it to Spanish with VMEG.

For local files, the agent should upload via POST /api/mcp/material/upload, then call create-task tools. See Quick start.

Limitations

Manual config	Add the Remote MCP URL and Bearer token yourself
