How to Use the Aspire MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I install the Aspire MCP server in Windsurf?

Open your MCP panel and click Refresh, or edit /.codeium/windsurf/mcpconfig.json. Add the Vinkius endpoint token under the mcpServers section. Cascade auto-discovers the tools immediately.

Q: How does Windsurf know my Aspire account is connected?

The agent can run getaccountcheck to verify the connection status. If it fails, Cascade will tell you the token is invalid before trying to pull campaign data.

Windsurf connects to Aspire to autonomously pull creator profiles and campaign metrics right into your IDE.

Track Active Marketing Campaigns

Start by asking Cascade to pull your current influencer marketing initiatives. Using the `list_projects` and `list_campaigns` tools, Windsurf grabs every active and archived campaign directly from your Aspire dashboard without making you switch tabs. Once the agent sees the project list, it can dig deeper on its own. It uses `get_project` to fetch specific budgets and timelines, letting you review marketing spend right next to your codebase.

Analyze Creators via Windsurf MCP Server

Finding the right influencers requires parsing a lot of profile data. Cascade handles this autonomously by firing off `list_project_members` to see who is attached to a specific campaign. Instead of prompting for each person, the agent loops through the roster using `get_member`. You get a clean breakdown of creator stats and historical performance formatted exactly how you want it.

Pull Live Post Engagement

You need to know if the content actually performed well. By calling `list_posts`, Windsurf retrieves the recent social media deliverables tied to your brand. Cascade then triggers `get_post` to extract the raw engagement metrics. It compiles the likes, comments, and reach into a summary document while you focus on other work.

Common questions about Aspire MCP in Windsurf

Open your MCP panel and click Refresh, or edit ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json. Add the Vinkius endpoint token under the mcpServers section. Cascade auto-discovers the tools immediately.

Yes. Cascade reads your goal and sequences the actions. It might run list_projects and immediately follow up with get_project without asking permission.

No. Vinkius handles the underlying OAuth and API keys. You just paste your single endpoint token into the configuration file.

The agent can run get_account_check to verify the connection status. If it fails, Cascade will tell you the token is invalid before trying to pull campaign data.

Vinkius runs your server in a V8 Isolate Sandbox. When you pull creator profiles or campaign budgets, the data passes through an ephemeral environment that destroys itself after the request. Nothing gets stored permanently.
