How to Use the Hologram.io MCP in Windsurf
Manage your Hologram.io IoT fleet directly inside Windsurf. Let Cascade track data usage and pause rogue SIMs automatically.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Hologram.io MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Hologram.io 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.
Track fleet coordinates via this MCP Server
`get_device_locations` pulls approximate GPS coordinates for your entire fleet based on raw cell tower data. Cascade grabs this data and correlates it with `list_iot_devices` to map out exactly where your active nodes are sitting right now. If a unit drops offline, your agent doesn't need to ask you what to do. It runs `get_device_details` to check the last known connection status, pulls the logs, and dumps a summary right in your editor. You get the exact fault state without opening a browser tab.
Monitor cellular overhead
`get_billing_cycle_usage` checks exactly how much data your fleet burned through this month. When a developer pushes a firmware update that gets stuck in a retry loop, cellular data spikes hard. Cascade spots the anomaly by running `get_daily_usage_stats` and cross-referencing `get_recent_data_sessions`. Instead of waiting for a massive invoice, your Windsurf agent flags the runaway node instantly. It identifies the exact device ID chewing through bandwidth so you can patch the firmware before it drains your project budget.
Kill rogue connections instantly
`pause_sim_data` cuts the cellular link to any specific SIM card in your network. If a device gets compromised or starts spamming the network, Cascade can pull the cellular link ID via `list_sim_cards` and suspend the connection autonomously. Once you push a fix to the codebase, tell Windsurf to bring the node back online. It fires `unpause_sim_data` and verifies the connection is restored. You can also check `list_sms_messages` to read any device-originated texts confirming the reboot sequence.
