How to Use the IBGE Nomes MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I add the IBGE Nomes server to my Windsurf setup?

Open your global config file at /.codeium/windsurf/mcpconfig.json and add the server configuration under the mcpServers key. Click the refresh button in your MCP panel, and Cascade will immediately discover the tools.

Q: How does this MCP server handle regional filters for rankings?

You pass specific locality codes to getnamesranking to filter by state or municipality. The tool queries the IBGE API and returns the exact ranking of the most frequent names for that specific geographic area.

Feed Brazilian naming trends directly to Windsurf's Cascade agent to build demographic-aware apps without writing API boilerplate.

Map demographic trends using the IBGE Nomes MCP Server

The `get_name_frequency` tool connects Windsurf to the official Brazilian census database to retrieve birth counts across decades. You can pass single names or pipe-separated lists to compare historical popularity directly inside your workspace. Cascade reads your workspace files, spots where you need demographic data, and calls this tool to populate your database seeds or frontend components. It handles the entire sequence without waiting for you to copy and paste JSON payloads.

Pull regional rankings directly into your local code

By calling the `get_names_ranking` tool, you retrieve localized name rankings filtered by state, municipality, or gender. This tool exposes the raw data structures needed to build realistic test suites or localized marketing lists. Cascade uses these rankings to write mock data generators that reflect actual Brazilian demographics. It matches the names to specific regions in your schema automatically, ensuring your test environments mirror real-world distributions.

Build data-driven features through autonomous execution

The `get_name_frequency` tool lets your agent query decade-by-decade birth statistics to analyze cultural shifts. You supply the user goal, and the system executes the necessary queries to map out the historical rise and fall of specific names. Cascade chains the frequency queries with the ranking filters to build complete analytical reports. It writes the markdown files, populates the charts, and saves the output directly to your project directory.
