About Hive AI MCP Server
Connect your Hive AI moderation account to any AI agent and take full control of your content safety and compliance workflows through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Hive AI 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
- Real-time Moderation — Perform synchronous moderation for text and images to filter hate speech, violence, and NSFW content instantly.
- AI Content Detection — Identify if text, images, or audio were created using generative AI models like GPT-4, Midjourney, or DALL-E.
- Asynchronous Processing — Submits large video and audio files for deep moderation and speech-to-text analysis.
- Task Monitoring — Track the status and retrieve results for background moderation tasks using unique task IDs.
- Model Insights — List available Hive AI models and retrieve project-specific configurations for both visual and text projects.
- Compliance Oversight — Access detailed moderation scores and classes to ensure your platform remains safe and professional.
The Hive AI 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 Hive AI MCP Server
Windsurf provides unique advantages when paired with Hive AI 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
Hive AI + Windsurf Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Windsurf combined with the Hive AI MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Automated code generation: ask Cascade to fetch data from Hive AI and generate models, types, or handlers based on real API responses
Live debugging: query Hive AI tools mid-session to inspect production data while debugging without leaving the editor
Documentation generation: pull schema information from Hive AI and have Cascade generate comprehensive API docs automatically
Rapid prototyping: combine Hive AI data with Cascade's code generation to scaffold entire features in minutes
