About Filebase (Web3 Storage) MCP Server
Connect your Filebase account to any AI agent and take full control of your decentralized Web3 storage workflows through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Filebase (Web3 Storage) tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 29 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- IPFS Operations — Add text files, fetch content by CID, and manage raw blocks directly on the IPFS network using the RPC API.
- Pinning Management — Use the Pinning Service API (PSA) or RPC to pin, list, and remove content identifiers (CIDs) for persistent storage.
- IPNS & Keys — Generate keypairs, publish CIDs to IPNS, and resolve names to IPFS paths for mutable decentralized websites.
- Usage & Infrastructure — Monitor storage usage, manage dedicated gateways, and track bucket metrics across the platform.
The Filebase (Web3 Storage) MCP Server exposes 29 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
