How to Use the BIMobject MCP in Windsurf
Let Windsurf pull real-world building specs and product files from BIMobject directly into your Cascade context.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect BIMobject MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect BIMobject 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.
Search and grab product data in Windsurf
Cascade can hit the marketplace to find specific building materials. It runs `search_products` to narrow down your options based on project requirements. Once the agent identifies the right item, it executes `get_product_details` to bring specs into your active file. You stop context switching between browser tabs and your IDE.
Manage manufacturer info via Windsurf
Need to verify a supplier's catalog? The agent calls `list_brands` to pull the latest manufacturer list. It then uses `get_brand_details` to confirm contact info or product ranges. Everything lands right in your current workspace for immediate review.
Access technical downloads in Windsurf
This MCP Server lets Cascade list available assets for any selected item. It triggers `get_product_files` to show you exactly what documentation is ready to download. You can then decide which files to integrate into your design. The agent handles the heavy lifting of finding the right technical data.
