…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Buzzsprout MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Buzzsprout 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.
Manage episodes with Windsurf
Cascade can pull your entire show history using `list_episodes` without you ever leaving the editor. Just ask the agent to find specific content, and it handles the lookup instantly. Use `get_episode` to verify metadata or `update_episode` to fix show notes on the fly. Windsurf chains these actions so you spend less time in the dashboard and more time coding.
Podcast stats inside Windsurf
Pull your core account data with `get_account_info` to see exactly where your show stands. The agent parses these details directly into your workspace context. You'll get `get_podcast_info` results piped right into your chat. It saves you from digging through web menus when you just need the technical specs for your site.
Full lifecycle control for Windsurf
Create new entries using `create_episode` directly from your project files. If you need to clean up, `delete_episode` handles the removal without a browser window in sight. Everything stays in your flow. Windsurf executes these tasks sequentially, keeping your podcast backend in sync with your local development environment.
