Map Database Schemas Autonomously

The agent calls `list_workspaces` and `list_applications` to map out your available environments before writing code. Database discovery starts with finding your active projects. Once the target database is found, it uses `list_tables` and `list_fields` to understand exactly what columns exist. You never have to copy-paste schema definitions again.

Write Data Directly From the IDE

Build features faster by having this Baserow MCP Server execute `create_row` directly from your editor. Tell Windsurf to build a contact form, and it wires up the backend logic immediately. If a test record needs fixing, Cascade runs `update_row` with a new JSON string. The agent also cleans up after itself using `delete_row` without asking for permission.

Fetch and Debug Live Records

Fetching live data for your local dev environment happens instantly when Cascade triggers `list_rows`. The agent pulls down real user data while handling search queries and pagination behind the scenes. When a specific record throws an error in your app, the agent targets it with `get_row`. This lets Windsurf debug the exact JSON payload causing the issue.

Setup guide

Set up Baserow MCP in Windsurf

Prerequisites

Windsurf IDE installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Click the Cascade assistant icon in the sidebar, then click the hammer icon (🔨) at the top of the panel. Select "Configure" to open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json.
2

Add the Baserow MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into the mcpServers object. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Refresh MCPs

Go back to the hammer icon (🔨) in Cascade and click "Refresh". Windsurf will detect the new server. No full restart is needed — the connection is hot-reloaded.
4

Verify in Cascade

Start a new Cascade conversation and ask something like "Show my Baserow payment history." If connected, Cascade will call the Baserow tools directly. You will see a green dot next to the server name in the MCP panel.

Common questions about Baserow MCP in Windsurf

Open your MCP panel and click the marketplace icon. You can also edit `~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json` manually to add the endpoint.

No, this integration targets tables directly. The agent lists your raw data rather than pulling pre-filtered view configurations.

Your field names probably conflict with the schema. Cascade needs to check the exact column types before pushing JSON payloads.

Vinkius handles the authentication layer. You just need your single endpoint token to authorize the client.

All workspace names, table structures, and individual row contents pass through a zero-trust V8 Isolate. The sandbox spins up just for the request and dies immediately after.
