How to Use the Formbricks MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I connect the Formbricks MCP Server to Windsurf?

Open your Windsurf MCP Servers UI under Settings, or edit /.codeium/windsurf/mcpconfig.json. Add the server details, click Refresh in the panel, and Cascade will auto-discover the tools.

Q: Can Cascade automatically fetch new survey responses?

Yes. Cascade can run listresponses in the background to pull recent feedback. It filters by survey ID and dumps the summarized insights straight into your active editor tab.

Q: What happens when I ask Windsurf to build a Formbricks survey?

Cascade plans the sequence, executes createsurvey with the right payload, and shows you the result. It skips the manual configuration steps and just builds the module.

Q: How does the agent know which webhooks are active?

Your agent calls listwebhooks to read the current configurations. It uses this data to debug connection issues if your survey responses fail to reach your backend.

Q: Is my Formbricks user data secure when Windsurf reads it?

Windsurf only processes the specific payloads returned by getperson and getresponse during your active session. The V8 Isolate Sandbox destroys this context once the session ends, ensuring your customers' raw feedback and identity details never leak.

Windsurf chains Formbricks survey tools autonomously to capture user feedback right inside your IDE.

Formbricks MCP Server Survey Control

Calling `create_survey` lets Windsurf spin up new feedback modules directly from your prompt. Cascade reads your project context, figures out what kind of user insights you need, and builds the survey structure without asking for permission at every step. You tell it to gather NPS data, and it handles the configuration instantly. If a survey runs its course, Cascade can hit `delete_survey` to clean up your environment. You can also pull down existing configurations using `get_survey` or grab the whole catalog with `list_surveys`. This means your agent keeps your feedback loops organized while you focus on writing code.

Map Users to Product Actions

Running `list_people` gives your MCP agent a complete view of who interacts with your application. Your agent cross-references this data using `get_person` to build a profile of specific users experiencing friction. Instead of guessing why someone abandoned a workflow, Cascade pulls their identity details directly into your workspace. Tying those users to behaviors requires `list_action_classes`. Windsurf checks which product triggers are active and maps them to your survey deployment strategy. It connects the dots between what a user did and when they should see a feedback prompt.

Autonomous Feedback Extraction

Triggering `list_responses` allows Windsurf to pull bulk feedback data and filter it by specific survey IDs. Cascade reads these responses, analyzes the text, and summarizes the sentiment right in your editor. If you need granular details on a single submission, it fires `get_response` to isolate that exact piece of feedback. To keep external systems updated, your MCP integration uses `list_webhooks` to verify where Formbricks sends its data. Windsurf checks your active webhooks to ensure survey completions actually reach your Slack channels or databases. You get a fully connected feedback pipeline without leaving the IDE.
