Connect AppVeyor MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect AppVeyor 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 build triggers and queue management
The AppVeyor MCP Server lets Cascade run and cancel builds without your manual input. When a test fails in your workspace, Windsurf calls `get_project_last_build` to check the failure, then runs `start_build` or `rerun_build` to verify your local fixes. Cascade chains these steps in one run. If a build hangs, it invokes `cancel_build` and reports the exact step that stalled in your terminal log.
Sync AppVeyor user roles inside Windsurf
This MCP Server exposes directory tools to align your local team config with AppVeyor. Cascade uses `list_users` and `list_roles` to audit who has access to your build environments. When you onboard a new developer, Cascade runs `add_user` and `add_collaborator` in sequence. You do not need to open the browser dashboard to update permissions.
Audit project settings and configurations
The server reads project configurations directly into your editing window using `get_project_settings`. Cascade analyzes the returned configuration file to find discrepancies between branches. It checks environmental variables with `get_environment_settings` and lists projects via `list_projects`. You get instant feedback on why a deployment pipeline is misconfigured.
