About MCP Server for Windsurf
MCP Server for Windsurf adds custom tools to the Windsurf agentic IDE through a FastAPI service. It includes file search, code analysis, and web requests, with REST and WebSocket interfaces.
Key features
- 01FastAPI backend
- 02Real-time bidirectional WebSocket
- 03Extensible custom tool registry
- 04REST endpoints for tool execution
- 05File search, code analysis, and web requests
Use cases
- 01Search files by directory pattern
- 02Analyze code syntax, complexity, and dependencies
- 03Execute HTTP requests to external APIs
MCP support
Acts as an MCP server that provides additional tools to Windsurf. Windsurf connects through the WebSocket endpoint, while tools can also be executed through REST endpoints.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
We haven’t collected a package or remote endpoint for this server. Follow the instructions in the project README.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
From the project READMEMCP Server for Windsurf
Master Control Program (MCP) server that provides additional tools for the Windsurf agentic IDE.
Overview
This MCP server is designed to extend Windsurf's capabilities by providing additional tools that aren't built into Windsurf. It uses FastAPI to create a robust API server with WebSocket support for real-time communication with Windsurf.
Features
- FastAPI Backend: High-performance, easy-to-use framework
- WebSocket Support: Real-time bidirectional communication
- Extensible Tool System: Easily add new tools to extend Windsurf
- RESTful API: HTTP endpoints for tool execution
- Windsurf Integration: Seamless integration with Windsurf IDE

Built-in Tools
The MCP server comes with several built-in tools:
- File Search: Search for files in a directory with pattern matching
- Code Analysis: Analyze code files for syntax, complexity, and dependencies
- Web Request: Make HTTP requests to external APIs
Installation
- Clone the repository
- Create a virtual environment:
python -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate - Install dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Usage
-
Start the MCP server:
python main.pyThis will start the server on http://localhost:8089
-
Connect Windsurf to the MCP server by configuring the WebSocket connection to:
ws://localhost:8089/ws -
Access the API documentation at http://localhost:8089/docs
Adding Custom Tools
To add a new tool to the MCP server:
- Open
tools.py - Use the
@register_tooldecorator to register your tool:
@register_tool(
name="my_custom_tool",
description="Description of what the tool does",
parameters={
"param1": {"type": "string", "description": "Description of parameter 1"},
"param2": {"type": "integer", "description": "Description of parameter 2"}
}
)
async def my_custom_tool_handler(params: Dict[str, Any]) -> Any:
# Tool implementation
param1 = params.get("param1", "")
param2 = params.get("param2", 0)
# Do something with the parameters
result = f"Processed {param1} with value {param2}"
return {"output": result}

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
