How to Use the Chewy Ads MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I configure the Chewy Ads MCP Server in Windsurf?

Open your /.codeium/windsurf/mcpconfig.json file or use the Settings menu. Add the endpoint URL under the mcpServers key. Hit the Refresh button in the MCP panel to load the tools.

Q: Can Windsurf and Chewy Ads pull keyword-level performance?

Yes. Cascade calls listadgroupkeywords to grab the search terms. Then it can analyze the spend and click data for those specific terms.

Q: How do I check my account budget using Chewy Ads in Windsurf?

Just tell Cascade to check your ad spend. It runs getchewyaccountbalance in the background and prints your current limits and available funds.

Connect Chewy Ads to Windsurf and let Cascade autonomously audit your retail media budgets and campaign performance.

Audit retail media budgets with Windsurf

Cascade doesn't just read your instructions; it plans the whole sequence. Ask it why your dog food campaign stopped spending. It fires `get_chewy_account_balance` to check if you hit the account cap. Then it grabs your active SKUs using `list_chewy_catalogs`. You get a complete picture of your budget status and product inventory without opening a browser tab.

Chewy Ads MCP Server campaign mapping

Stop manually clicking through ad groups. Tell Cascade to map out your entire sponsored product structure. It runs `list_chewy_campaigns` to grab the high-level IDs. From there, the agent loops through `list_campaign_adgroups` and `list_adgroup_ads` to build a complete tree of your active placements. You see exactly which dog toy ads sit in which groups.

Chain keyword performance reports

Analyzing keyword spend usually means exporting CSVs. Cascade handles this autonomously. It pulls `list_adgroup_keywords` to find exactly what search terms trigger your listings. Next, it feeds those IDs into `get_performance_report`. You just ask for a weekly ROAS summary. The integration handles the data extraction and formatting right in your editor.
