GPS distance math for Windsurf

The `calculate_distance` tool handles the heavy lifting of spherical geometry. You just pass the coordinates, and your agent gets the distance in miles or kilometers immediately. Windsurf uses this data to plan routes or verify locations within your project files. It removes the need to write custom math functions for every new feature.

Real-time coordinate processing

Feed raw GPS data from your backend into the `calculate_distance` tool directly through the chat interface. Cascade interprets these inputs to build out your routing logic. This MCP server keeps your codebase clean by isolating geo-calculations from your business logic. You get accurate results without cluttering your repository.

Automated geo-routing logic

Let your agent chain `calculate_distance` into larger workflows like order dispatching or asset tracking. It performs the math as part of a larger plan. Precision matters when you're moving goods across a map. Using this tool ensures your agent relies on a consistent formula rather than guessing at distances.

Setup guide

Set up Haversine Distance Engine MCP in Windsurf

Prerequisites

Windsurf IDE installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Click the Cascade assistant icon in the sidebar, then click the hammer icon (🔨) at the top of the panel. Select "Configure" to open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json.
2

Add the Haversine Distance Engine MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into the mcpServers object. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Refresh MCPs

Go back to the hammer icon (🔨) in Cascade and click "Refresh". Windsurf will detect the new server. No full restart is needed — the connection is hot-reloaded.
4

Verify in Cascade

Start a new Cascade conversation and ask something like "Show my Haversine Distance Engine payment history." If connected, Cascade will call the Haversine Distance Engine tools directly. You will see a green dot next to the server name in the MCP panel.

Common questions about Haversine Distance Engine MCP in Windsurf

Open your MCP settings and add the server configuration under the mcpServers block. Once you click refresh, the tool appears in your agent's context.

Yes, you can prompt your agent to loop through a dataset and apply the tool to each pair of points. It processes these sequentially to populate your result set.

The engine uses a spherical model, which is accurate for most standard logistics. Expect a minor margin of error compared to geodesic alternatives.

Your data stays in your local environment. The Vinkius infrastructure manages the connection without storing the specific location points you process.

The math correctly processes points across all quadrants. It validates your latitude and longitude inputs before running the calculation.
