How to Use the CoinMarketCal MCP in Windsurf
Let Cascade pull live crypto event data directly into your Windsurf workspace.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect CoinMarketCal MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect CoinMarketCal 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.
Track crypto events in Windsurf
Cascade can hit the `list_events` or `list_popular_events` tools to grab the latest crypto happenings. You just ask, and the agent pulls the schedule right into your chat context. Stop digging through browser tabs. Windsurf uses these tools to build a clear picture of upcoming forks or releases before you write a single line of code.
Filter specific coins with Windsurf
Use `get_coin_id` to map a ticker to the internal database. Once you have that, `search_events_by_coin` gives you a focused list of relevant activity. This MCP server lets your agent see exactly what matters for your specific project. No noise, just the data points you need for your market analysis.
Calendar planning in Windsurf
Query `search_events_by_date` to see what is happening in a specific window. It helps you time your deployments around major market movements. Windsurf reads these dates and helps you plan your dev cycle accordingly. It's a quick way to keep your project aligned with the actual industry timeline.
