Connect Gridscale (IaaS & PaaS Cloud Hosting API) MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Gridscale (IaaS & PaaS Cloud Hosting API) 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.
Automate server provisioning in Windsurf
Cascade reads your requirements and calls `create_server` to spin up instances without manual interaction. It selects the right `list_locations` and `list_templates` based on your project needs. Once the instance is ready, it uses `link_ip_to_server` and `link_storage_to_server` to attach your volumes. You define the end state, and the agent executes the sequence.
Monitor cloud health with Gridscale tools
Windsurf pulls real-time data using `get_server_metrics` to help you spot performance bottlenecks before they hit production. It checks `get_server_power` to verify current status across your fleet. If an issue arises, the agent uses `list_servers` to isolate the affected node. It then presents the data directly in your editor for immediate review.
Manage infrastructure state inside the IDE
Use `set_server_power` or `shutdown_server` to manage your environment directly from the terminal or sidebar. This MCP Server tracks your entire footprint including `list_firewalls` and `list_networks`. You can audit your resources by calling `list_deleted` to see what was recently removed. This ensures your local environment remains in sync with your cloud configuration.
