Let’s Vibe Code any API into our MCP server (in 10 minutes)

Learn how to build with AI 🚀 Join our community: https://go.gritai.studio/gritai-vibe-...

Connect your MCP Server to any API. In this video, we take the MCP server we built last time and crank it up a notch — by wrapping any API into it using Cursor.

You’ll learn how to:
✅ Wrap public APIs like the Norwegian Police Incident Feed
✅ Connect to authenticated APIs like Alpha Vantage for stock data
✅ Let Claude fetch + analyze live data — all from your AI assistant
