Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect AlgoDocs MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect AlgoDocs to Windsurf and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Automate document parsing in Windsurf
Cascade reads your requirements and calls `upload_document_from_url` to get the parsing started immediately. You don't have to leave the editor to trigger extraction jobs. Once the document is processed, Cascade uses `get_document_data` to bring the text right into your active file. It treats your PDFs as code context.
Monitor extraction status with this MCP Server
Keep tabs on your pipeline by calling `get_document_status` within your Windsurf chat. The agent checks if the file is ready for consumption without manual polling. If you need to verify the source, `list_recent_documents` provides a snapshot of what just finished. It keeps your context window clean.
Manage your storage folders inside Windsurf
Organize your workflow by using `list_folders` to see exactly where your assets live. You can pull metadata with `get_folder_details` to verify file paths before processing. This MCP Server lets you switch folders on the fly. Cascade handles the heavy lifting of mapping your directory structure.
