About Netdata MCP Server
Connect your Netdata monitoring infrastructure to any AI agent for instant, real-time observability and performance analysis through natural language.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Netdata 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
- Real-time Metrics — Fetch granular data from specific charts (CPU, RAM, Disk, Network) using
get_chart_datato diagnose performance bottlenecks. - Agent Health — Inspect node versions, host information, and enabled features with
get_agent_infoandlist_charts. - Alert Management — Query active alarms on local agents via
get_alarmsor monitor space-wide critical issues usinglist_space_alerts. - Cloud Orchestration — Navigate your entire infrastructure by listing spaces, rooms, and nodes connected to Netdata Cloud.
- Scraping & Export — Retrieve all metrics in a format suitable for external analysis tools using
get_all_metrics.
The Netdata MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Windsurf with the Netdata MCP Server
Windsurf provides unique advantages when paired with Netdata through the Model Context Protocol.
Windsurf's Cascade agent autonomously chains multiple tool calls in sequence, solving complex multi-step tasks without manual intervention
Purpose-built for agentic workflows. Cascade understands context across your entire codebase and integrates MCP tools natively
JSON-based configuration means zero code changes: paste a URL, reload, and all 10 tools are immediately available
Real-time tool feedback is displayed inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor without switching contexts
Netdata + Windsurf Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Windsurf combined with the Netdata MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Automated code generation: ask Cascade to fetch data from Netdata and generate models, types, or handlers based on real API responses
Live debugging: query Netdata tools mid-session to inspect production data while debugging without leaving the editor
Documentation generation: pull schema information from Netdata and have Cascade generate comprehensive API docs automatically
Rapid prototyping: combine Netdata data with Cascade's code generation to scaffold entire features in minutes
Example Prompts for Netdata in Windsurf
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Windsurf agent to start working with Netdata immediately.
"Get the current information and version of the Netdata agent."
"List all available charts on this node so I can see what metrics are being collected."
"Are there any active alarms or warnings on the local agent right now?"
