How to Use the Cakemail MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I connect the Cakemail MCP Server to Windsurf?

Open your Windsurf settings or edit /.codeium/windsurf/mcpconfig.json directly. Add the Vinkius endpoint under the mcpServers key, click refresh in the side panel, and Cascade will immediately discover all ten tools.

Q: Can Windsurf Cascade autonomously send a Cakemail campaign?

Yes, Cascade can draft and prepare campaigns using createcampaign. However, you retain final approval before any emails go out to your actual subscriber list.

Q: How does Windsurf manage Cakemail contact lists?

Cascade chains the createcontactlist and createcontact tools together. You just give it a list of emails, and it handles the entire import sequence on its own.

Q: Can I view campaign performance metrics directly inside the editor?

Yes. The agent calls getanalytics to pull your latest tracking logs and displays them directly inside your workspace chat window.

Let Windsurf plan and run your entire Cakemail campaign flow without you writing a single line of boilerplate.

Build contact lists inside Windsurf

Cascade handles your subscriber growth without needing your constant input. When you feed it a raw CSV of leads, Cascade initiates a new list using `create_contact_list` and maps the fields. It then loops through each record to trigger `create_contact` for every valid address. You don't have to write import scripts or map API headers manually. Windsurf chains these steps together using the Cakemail MCP tools, reporting back only when the list is fully populated and ready for your first broadcast.

Automate Cakemail campaigns with Windsurf

This MCP Server lets Windsurf draft, verify, and queue your email broadcasts autonomously. Cascade reads your latest product updates, writes the email copy, and runs `create_campaign` to set up the draft in your account. It doesn't stop at creation. The agent immediately calls `list_campaigns` to verify the draft exists, checks the layout, and prepares the dispatch schedule based on your prompt's instructions.

Real-time analytics loops in your IDE

Keep an eye on how your emails perform without leaving your active workspace. Windsurf queries your sender metrics using `get_analytics` and parses the raw logs into a clean markdown table right in your sidebar. If open rates drop, Cascade can cross-reference the data with `get_campaign` to analyze subject line performance. It then drafts a follow-up test list using `get_contact_list` to run an A/B test on your next send.
