How to Use the Travis CI MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I check the overall health of my project with Travis CI and Windsurf?

You can run getrepositorydetails to get the current status. If you want a full view, use listrepositorybranches; it shows the latest build result for every branch configured in your Travis CI account.

Q: If I need to restart a failed job, does Windsurf support this with Travis CI?

Yes. You must first get the correct build ID using getbuilddetails. Then, you use the restarttravisbuild tool, which kicks off a new attempt on that specific failed build.

Q: Can I list all repositories for Travis CI and Windsurf through the MCP Server?

Absolutely. The listtravisrepositories tool scans your account and delivers every repository configured in your Travis CI setup, letting you know what needs managing.

Q: What happens if I cancel a running build using Windsurf and Travis CI?

The canceltravisbuild action immediately stops the execution. Remember this is irreversible for the current run; it just cuts the power to that specific job.

Q: Does the MCP Server allow me to see who I am connected as for Travis CI and Windsurf?

You can confirm your identity using getuserprofile. This retrieves the authenticated Travis CI user profile details, confirming the scope of what you're allowed to manage.

Check Repository Health Status

Use `get_repository_details` to pull the status for any given repository. This tells you if a repo is healthy or if something broke on its default branch. You can also run `list_travis_repositories` to see every single repo configured in your account, giving you a quick overview of which projects need attention.

Manage and Trigger Builds

Need fresh test results? You'll use `trigger_new_build`, providing the necessary repo slug, git branch, and an optional message. This kicks off a build immediately. If you need to monitor what just ran, start with `get_build_details` for the full context. From there, you can drill down into specific jobs using `list_build_jobs`.

View Build History and Branches

Want to see if a feature branch passed testing? Run `list_repository_branches`. This lists all branches along with their latest build status, saving you manual checks. To review what happened last week, use `list_builds` which provides recent build executions for a specific repository slug.
