How to Use the MeisterTask MCP in Windsurf
Let Cascade build, update, and manage your MeisterTask boards directly inside Windsurf without writing API boilerplate.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect MeisterTask MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect MeisterTask 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.
Autonomous board updates with Windsurf
The `update_task_info` tool lets your Cascade agent modify assignees, descriptions, or due dates without waiting for your manual confirmation. Cascade reads your open file context, identifies what needs to change, and edits the task details instantly. This means you can tell Cascade to update a task based on your git commit, and it will run the sequence in one shot. It uses `get_task_details` to verify the state before writing changes, keeping your project board in sync with your local workspace.
Multi-step task routing on MeisterTask
The `list_project_sections` tool allows Cascade to map out the columns on your Kanban boards and route work where it belongs. Instead of manually moving cards, Cascade analyzes your code edits, locates the correct board section, and handles the migration. By chaining `list_section_tasks` and `create_new_task`, the agent can spot missing requirements in your code and spin up new tasks in the correct backlogs. It does this by checking the actual columns on your boards first, avoiding broken links or misplaced cards.
Direct project sweeps through the MCP Server
The `list_task_projects` tool exposes your entire MeisterTask workspace directly to your Windsurf environment. Cascade queries this tool to find the exact boards related to your active codebase, eliminating the need to hunt for project IDs. Once Cascade identifies the relevant board, it uses `search_tasks_by_query` to find specific issues you mention in your code comments. Your agent handles the search, reads the comments with `list_task_comments`, and updates the status without you leaving the editor.
