Connect Dotcom-Monitor MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Dotcom-Monitor 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.
Trace device health inside Windsurf
Cascade reads your infrastructure state by calling `get_device_details` to pull current status. You get immediate visibility into what is failing without leaving your editor. It connects the dots by checking `get_device_monitoring_history` to see if this is a recurring outage. Windsurf uses this data to decide if your current code change actually fixed the issue.
Map global performance with this MCP Server
Run `list_monitoring_locations` to see exactly where your site is struggling. This MCP Server gives your agent the context needed to debug regional latency spikes. It helps you filter results using `list_monitoring_devices` so you only focus on the hardware that matters. Cascade handles the heavy lifting of parsing these lists while you write logic.
Query alert groups automatically
Use `list_alert_groups` to verify who gets notified when a service hits a threshold. Windsurf pulls this list to cross-reference your internal incident response plans. It verifies `list_available_platforms` to ensure your monitoring config matches your production stack. Cascade keeps these settings in view so you never miss a critical alert configuration.
