About Kintone MCP Server
Connect your Kintone platform to any AI agent to automate your business operations. This MCP server enables your agent to interact with custom apps, manage data records, and query organizational metadata directly.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Kintone 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
- Record Management — List, retrieve, add, and update records in any of your Kintone apps
- App Discovery — List all available applications and retrieve detailed configurations and field mappings
- Data Querying — Use Kintone's powerful query language to filter records based on complex criteria
- Form Inspection — Access form field settings and layouts to understand data structures
- Space Visibility — List members and participants within your Kintone collaboration spaces
The Kintone 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.
