About Mattermost (Secure Team Collaboration) MCP Server
Connect your Mattermost instance to any AI agent and take full control of your mission-critical communication, channel orchestration, and team management through natural conversation.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Mattermost (Secure Team Collaboration) tool calls autonomously — query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste the 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
- Message Orchestration — Dispatch high-quality Markdown posts directly to any channel, including @mentions, and manage existing threads with real-time updates and deletions
- Channel Discovery — Use fuzzy search to identify public or hidden channels across your entire team infrastructure without manual navigation loops
- Timeline Inspection — Retrieve exact chronological message graphs from specific channels to stay updated on project status and historical conversations
- Team Management — Enumerate active teams and workspace parent containers to retrieve the exact UUIDs required for deep-level routing architectures
- Member Auditing — List team members and verify user roles or LDAP/SSO account mappings to ensure proper access control within your collaboration space
- Compliance Audit — Substitute pre-existing message contents while preserving audit timestamps, ensuring your communication remains compliant and traceable
- User Inventory — Identify active human and bot identities across the server to accurately route mentions and automated pings securely
The Mattermost (Secure Team Collaboration) 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.

Mattermost (Secure Team Collaboration) MCP Tools for Windsurf (10)
These 10 tools become available when you connect Mattermost (Secure Team Collaboration) to Windsurf via MCP:
create_post
Dispatch an automated Markdown payload explicitly into a Channel
delete_post
Changes the internal `delete_at` marker implicitly wiping visibility synchronously across all active UI clients leaving no front-end trace replacing caching bounds. Irreversibly vaporize an explicit text post off Mattermost arrays
get_all_users
Returns explicit `user_id` mapping arrays required for routing `@mentions` properly bypassing username spoofing by querying absolute Database entries via API v4. Identify precise active Human/Bot constraints navigating the server
get_channel_details
Inspect deep internal properties parsing a specific Mattermost node
get_channel_posts
Retrieve the exact timeline matrix identifying Enterprise messages
get_team_members
Enumerate explicitly attached user capabilities active within a Team
get_teams
Necessary strictly to obtain `team_id` properties resolving all subsequent deep-level routing architectures over the network. Identify global Mattermost Workspace (Team) underlying endpoints
list_team_channels
Scans core enterprise contexts identifying where payload deployments land. Perform structural extraction of public routing Channels on a Team
search_channels
Scan the database aggressively discovering a hidden/public Channel
update_post
Substitutes literal byte contents appending explicit "(edited)" timestamps visibly preserving audit compliance capabilities inherently. Mutate global Chat String pre-existing records via HTTP PUT
Example Prompts for Mattermost (Secure Team Collaboration) in Windsurf
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Windsurf agent to start working with Mattermost (Secure Team Collaboration) immediately.
"List all teams available in my Mattermost instance"
"Search for a channel called 'product-alerts' in the Engineering team"
