Connect LiteLLM (LLM Proxy & Spend Tracking) MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect LiteLLM (LLM Proxy & Spend Tracking) 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.
Automated proxy key management
Cascade needs to move fast without manual key generation. Use `generate_key` to spin up credentials for your microservices while keeping them siloed. Keep your budget in check by using `get_key_info` to audit exactly what a key is allowed to spend before a request even leaves your IDE.
Dynamic model routing control
When an endpoint goes down, you don't want to dig through config files. Use `create_model` to inject fresh routing endpoints directly into your environment. Verify your failover logic by calling `get_model_info` to inspect the fallback path from your primary provider to your backup.
Granular team cost tracking
Stop guessing which department burned through the budget. Call `create_team` to isolate costs by division and enforce strict usage limits. Use `get_team_info` to pull the current logic bounds for any team. It tells you exactly where the money is going without needing to check a separate dashboard.
