How to Use the Cosmic (Headless CMS & Content API) MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I set up Cosmic (Headless CMS & Content API) in Windsurf?

Open your /.codeium/windsurf/mcpconfig.json file and add the server configuration under the mcpServers key. Alternatively, use the Cascade settings UI to paste the connection URL, then refresh the MCP panel.

Q: Can Cascade autonomously create new object types using Cosmic (Headless CMS & Content API) and Windsurf?

Yes, Cascade can analyze your local code structure and use createobjecttype to build schemas without your manual intervention. It chains the entire setup process from schema creation to data entry.

Q: How does the Cosmic (Headless CMS & Content API) MCP Server handle media uploads in Windsurf?

Cascade invokes createmedia to upload files from your local workspace to your Cosmic bucket. It then grabs the returned URL to populate your content fields.

Q: Can I query specific content subsets using this integration?

Automating Content Schemas in Windsurf

Cascade reads your local codebase, figuring out what data structures your frontend expects, and uses the `create_object_type` tool to build matching schemas in your Cosmic bucket. Instead of jumping to a web browser to configure fields manually, you just describe the new feature to your IDE. The agent then executes a sequence, running `update_object_type` to patch existing models and calling `list_object_types` to verify the remote setup matches your local TypeScript interfaces. This keeps your headless CMS in lockstep with your code changes during active development.

Bulk Content Generation and Asset Management

When you need to populate test data, this MCP Server lets Cascade handle bulk uploads in one go. The agent chains `create_media` to push image assets and immediately follows up by calling `batch_objects` to link those assets to new content entries. You don't have to write throwaway seeding scripts or manually upload assets through a web dashboard. Cascade tracks the upload status of each asset and updates the corresponding Cosmic objects in a single, autonomous execution loop.

Version Tracking and Revision Rollbacks

Tracking down content changes becomes simple when Cascade manages your history using this MCP integration. The agent calls `list_revisions` to fetch previous states of a document and presents the diff directly in your Windsurf workspace. If you need to revert a mistake, Cascade invokes `create_revision` to restore an older version of your content. This gives you absolute control over your Cosmic CMS history without leaving your code editor.
