How to Use the Fastly MCP in Cline

Q: How do I trigger Fastly purges using Cline?

You give the command, and Cline executes purgeallcache for the specified service. It handles the API call and reports back once the operation finishes.

Q: Will Cline show me my Fastly service stats?

Yes. It uses getservicestats to fetch usage metrics and displays them in the chat. You get the numbers exactly when you need them.

Q: Can Cline delete a Fastly service if I ask?

It can run deleteservice if you authorize the action. Cline will confirm the service ID first to ensure you don't delete the wrong target.

Cline executes end-to-end Fastly deployments and cache purges by calling the tools directly from your VS Code workspace.

Perplexity

Direct service orchestration in Cline

Cline takes your deployment instructions and runs `create_service` or `activate_service_version` without needing manual input. It works through the steps logically. If a deployment fails, it checks `list_service_versions` to find the last known good configuration. It fixes the path forward based on what it finds.

Instant edge invalidation

Trigger `purge_all_cache` as part of your post-deploy sequence. Cline runs this automatically after it updates the active version. It confirms the purge status so you know the edge is clean. You don't have to wait for the dashboard to update.

Backend and domain verification

Cline inspects your infrastructure by running `list_version_backends` and `list_version_domains`. It validates the setup before you commit to a change. You avoid configuration errors because the agent reads the actual state from the API. It sees the same data you do, just faster.
