Connect Fastly MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Fastly 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.
Full-cycle service management for Windsurf
Cascade reads your current project state and uses `list_services` to find the target. It then digs into `list_version_backends` to confirm everything is ready for a production push. Once the plan is set, it hits `activate_service_version` to flip the switch. You watch the changes happen in the terminal pane while the agent handles the rest.
Automated cache control
Don't waste time manually clearing your edge assets. Just tell Cascade to invalidate the site and it triggers `purge_all_cache` immediately. It checks `get_service_stats` before moving, ensuring your origin servers aren't getting hammered during the process. The agent knows when it's safe to clear the deck.
Real-time configuration audits
Stop guessing what version is live on your edge. Cascade runs `list_service_versions` to show you the exact state of your current infrastructure. It pulls data via `get_service_version` so you see exactly what's inside the config. You get a clear view of your domains and backends without leaving the IDE.
