How to Use the Arcadia Plug MCP in Windsurf
Let Windsurf pull utility statements and audit meters autonomously using the Arcadia Plug MCP Server.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Arcadia Plug MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Arcadia Plug 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.
Audit utility bills with this MCP Server
Cascade pulls your historical billing data the moment you ask for a cost breakdown. Instead of prompting for every single month, Windsurf chains the `list_statements` tool to grab the entire history. It reads the context of your request and figures out the exact date range needed. You get a complete cost analysis without lifting a finger. The agent cross-references that data with specific statement details using `get_statement` to find anomalies. That means you spend less time clicking through utility portals and more time analyzing the actual spend.
Map organization accounts and meters
Tracking dozens of utility logins across different facilities gets messy fast. Windsurf runs `list_credentials` to see what is currently connected, then fires off `list_accounts` to pull the specific utility accounts tied to your organization. Cascade handles this sequence completely in the background. Once the accounts are loaded, it maps the physical infrastructure. The agent calls `list_meters` to tie specific power usage points back to the billing data. You just ask for a facility overview, and the IDE builds the whole relationship tree.
Verify live connections instantly
Broken utility integrations ruin data pipelines. When you are building a dashboard in Windsurf, Cascade can proactively check if the Arcadia connection is actually working through the MCP Server. It uses `get_account_check` to validate the auth state before writing any API wrapper code. Failing early saves hours of debugging. If the check returns an error, Cascade stops and tells you the credential needs updating. This autonomous verification keeps your local development environment grounded in reality.
