About Flock MCP Server
Connect your Flock bot to any AI agent and take full control of your team communication, private groups, and organizational roster through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Flock tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 10 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- Rich Messaging Orchestration — Provision massively fast payloads strictly into Flock chats, utilizing `
to render rich enterprise attachments and formatted layouts natively - Public Channel Discovery — Enumerate explicitly attached public channels and execute bulk iterations to capture global namespaces and routing configurations synchronously
- Private Group Management — Identify bounded private groups and retrieve precise physical definitions detailing exactly how hidden groups operate within your enterprise
- Organizational Roster Auditing — Discovers global identity blocks mapping direct @` aliases to absolute string UUIDs to solve accurate routing for the entire company
- Identity Metadata Retrieval — Perform structural extraction of profile metadata linked to Flock users, resolving time zones and LDAP/SSO properties securely
- Chat Log Ingestion — Pull chronological asynchronous logs from any room, extracting raw JSON objects mapping historical strings natively from chat fetchers
- Membership Oversight — Audit IAM boundaries and identify explicit active UUIDs directly attached to channels or groups to verify intended audiences flawlessly
The Flock MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Windsurf with the Flock MCP Server
Windsurf provides unique advantages when paired with Flock through the Model Context Protocol.
Windsurf's Cascade agent autonomously chains multiple tool calls in sequence, solving complex multi-step tasks without manual intervention
Purpose-built for agentic workflows. Cascade understands context across your entire codebase and integrates MCP tools natively
JSON-based configuration means zero code changes: paste a URL, reload, and all 10 tools are immediately available
Real-time tool feedback is displayed inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor without switching contexts
Flock + Windsurf Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Windsurf combined with the Flock MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Automated code generation: ask Cascade to fetch data from Flock and generate models, types, or handlers based on real API responses
Live debugging: query Flock tools mid-session to inspect production data while debugging without leaving the editor
Documentation generation: pull schema information from Flock and have Cascade generate comprehensive API docs automatically
Rapid prototyping: combine Flock data with Cascade's code generation to scaffold entire features in minutes
