About Apache APISIX MCP Server

Connect your Apache APISIX instance to any AI agent to orchestrate high-performance traffic management through natural language.

Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Apache APISIX tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 50 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.

What you can do

Route Orchestration — List, inspect, create, or delete routes to match client requests and forward them to target upstreams.
Service Abstraction — Manage service entities that group common plugins and upstream configurations for easier API maintenance.
Upstream Management — Configure virtual host abstractions for load balancing, including node management and health checks.
Consumer Control — List and manage API consumers to handle authentication and per-user rate limiting.
Configuration as Conversation — Update complex JSON configurations for any gateway resource without manually using CURL or the Dashboard.

The Apache APISIX MCP Server exposes 50 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Windsurf with the Apache APISIX MCP Server

Windsurf provides unique advantages when paired with Apache APISIX through the Model Context Protocol.

Windsurf's Cascade agent autonomously chains multiple tool calls in sequence, solving complex multi-step tasks without manual intervention

Purpose-built for agentic workflows. Cascade understands context across your entire codebase and integrates MCP tools natively

JSON-based configuration means zero code changes: paste a URL, reload, and all 50 tools are immediately available

Real-time tool feedback is displayed inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor without switching contexts

Apache APISIX + Windsurf Use Cases

Practical scenarios where Windsurf combined with the Apache APISIX MCP Server delivers measurable value.

Automated code generation: ask Cascade to fetch data from Apache APISIX and generate models, types, or handlers based on real API responses

Live debugging: query Apache APISIX tools mid-session to inspect production data while debugging without leaving the editor

Documentation generation: pull schema information from Apache APISIX and have Cascade generate comprehensive API docs automatically

Rapid prototyping: combine Apache APISIX data with Cascade's code generation to scaffold entire features in minutes

Example Prompts for Apache APISIX in Windsurf

Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Windsurf agent to start working with Apache APISIX immediately.

"List all active routes in my APISIX gateway."

"Show me the configuration for upstream ID 'backend-cluster'."

"List all consumers to check who has access to the API."

Apache APISIX + Windsurf FAQ

Common questions about integrating Apache APISIX MCP Server with Windsurf.

How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?

Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.

Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?

Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.

Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?

Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
