Can I record a single event using this agent?

Yes, the `record_event` tool allows you to send a JSON object representing your event directly to any named collection.

How do I calculate the average value of a property?

Use the `average_property` tool by specifying the collection name and the numeric target property you want to average.

Is it possible to see my project's collections?

Absolutely. The `list_collections` tool retrieves a list of all event types (collections) currently stored in your Keen project.

About Keen MCP Server

Connect your Keen.io project to any AI agent to automate data collection and analysis. This MCP server allows your agent to record events and run complex analytical queries (count, sum, average, etc.) directly from natural language.

Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Keen 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

Event Recording — Send custom event data to any collection in your project instantly
Compute Metrics — Run aggregation queries like count, sum, and average on your event data
Data Discovery — List all event collections, saved queries, and cached datasets
Insight Extraction — Retrieve unique values for specific properties to understand data distribution
Project Oversight — Get comprehensive metadata and configuration details for your Keen project

The Keen 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.

Keen + Windsurf FAQ

Common questions about integrating Keen MCP Server with Windsurf.

How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?

Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.

Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?

Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.

Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?

Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
