About Capacities MCP Server
Connect your Capacities account to any AI agent and take full control of your object-based personal knowledge management through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Capacities tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 10 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- Spaces & Structures — Enumerate your personal spaces and discover the exact object type structures mapping your active environment.
- Object Instantiation — Build new typed graph objects complying precisely with the predefined structure parameters.
- Daily Note Appends — Send quick thoughts, summaries, and Markdown text directly into your mapped daily note log.
- Content Lookups — Execute rapid keyword searches targeting explicit object hierarchies to track down active nodes.
- Rich Link Saving — Parse and inject web URLs dynamically into your space as Weblink objects, triggering automatic previews.
- Media & Tagging — Attach images and add tags to existing objects to organize your graph relations instantly.
The Capacities MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Windsurf with the Capacities MCP Server
Windsurf provides unique advantages when paired with Capacities through the Model Context Protocol.
Windsurf's Cascade agent autonomously chains multiple tool calls in sequence, solving complex multi-step tasks without manual intervention
Purpose-built for agentic workflows. Cascade understands context across your entire codebase and integrates MCP tools natively
JSON-based configuration means zero code changes: paste a URL, reload, and all 10 tools are immediately available
Real-time tool feedback is displayed inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor without switching contexts
Capacities + Windsurf Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Windsurf combined with the Capacities MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Automated code generation: ask Cascade to fetch data from Capacities and generate models, types, or handlers based on real API responses
Live debugging: query Capacities tools mid-session to inspect production data while debugging without leaving the editor
Documentation generation: pull schema information from Capacities and have Cascade generate comprehensive API docs automatically
Rapid prototyping: combine Capacities data with Cascade's code generation to scaffold entire features in minutes

These 10 tools become available when you connect Capacities to Windsurf via MCP:
add_tag
Add a structural categorical Tag linking explicitly dynamically grouping related Graph items via relations
create_object
Create a new typed object in a Capacities space bounded by specific graph rules instantiating entities
get_object
Retrieve a specific full explicit object by ID accessing its root graph data traversing properties internally
