How to Use the Baidu Qianfan MCP in Windsurf

Q: Can I see my fine-tuning jobs?

You can. The listtrainjobs tool lets your agent check the status of any model training jobs in your account. It's a quick way to see what's running without leaving your editor.

Q: What data does the Baidu Qianfan MCP Server handle for Windsurf?

This server processes text prompts for chatcompletions and texttoimage, and text inputs for getembeddings. Vinkius runs each request in a sandboxed, ephemeral V8 Isolate, and your auth token is the only credential needed to make a call.

Perplexity

Generate Content and Embeddings

Ask Windsurf to write a blog post and then generate a header image for it. Cascade, Windsurf's autonomous agent, chains the `chat_completions` and `text_to_image` tools automatically. You get the final result, not a list of questions to answer. Need to analyze that new text? Just tell Cascade to create vector embeddings. It calls the `get_embeddings` tool on the content it just wrote. No copy-pasting from one window to another.

Manage Your Baidu Models in Windsurf

This MCP Server gives Cascade a direct line into your Baidu Qianfan account. You can ask it to check which models are available with `list_models` or see your active training jobs with `list_train_jobs`. It's way faster than logging into a web console. Before you start a new fine-tuning run, have Cascade check your existing data. It uses `list_datasets` to get the info and shows it to you right in your IDE. This keeps you focused on your work, not on account management.

Chain AI Operations Autonomously

The real power here is in the chaining. Prompt Windsurf with 'draft a product update and generate an image for it based on our latest training job.' Cascade will `list_train_jobs`, pick the latest one, use that info to call `chat_completions`, then feed a summary to `text_to_image`. One prompt triggers a full sequence of work. This isn't about single commands. It's about giving your agent a goal and the right tools to achieve it. Your agent figures out the steps, so you don't have to.
