How to Use the Commerce Layer MCP in Windsurf
Let Windsurf Cascade manage your store data by connecting directly to the Commerce Layer API.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Commerce Layer MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Commerce Layer 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.
Windsurf handles complex order lookups
Cascade doesn't wait for your input when you need order data. It uses `get_order` and `list_orders` to pull specific details directly into your workspace. This MCP Server lets the agent jump between records. It grabs shipment status or customer history without you clicking through a dashboard.
Automate SKU management in Windsurf
You can ask the agent to verify inventory levels across your catalog. It fires `list_skus` and `get_sku` to check stock availability in real-time. Changes to your product data show up inside your IDE immediately. Cascade parses the API response and updates your local files based on those exact price and SKU definitions.
Analyze performance data with Windsurf
Stop exporting CSVs when you need basic metrics. The agent calls `get_order_stats` to compute totals based on the current order volume. Windsurf reads these calculations and presents them right in your chat panel. You get the numbers you need without leaving your code editor.
