How to Use the Universal Unit Converter MCP in Windsurf

Q: How does the Universal Unit Converter help with temperature units inside Windsurf?

The server uses converttemperature to switch between Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin. Just set your goal in Windsurf, and Cascade handles the conversion automatically.

Q: Can I use Universal Unit Converter for file size conversions with Windsurf?

Yes. The convertdigitalstorage tool manages binary prefixes (B, KB, MB, GB). You just tell the agent what you're trying to convert.

Q: Does Universal Unit Converter support weight conversions when using Windsurf?

It does. The convertweight tool handles metric and imperial weights (kilograms, pounds, ounces). It’s deterministic, so the conversion is always spot-on.

Get exact measurements and physical conversions, automatically chained by Windsurf's Cascade agent.

Convert Units with Windsurf’s MCP Server

Need to plan a multi-step conversion? Let Windsurf's Cascade agent handle it. You tell it the goal—say, converting temperature and then calculating the equivalent storage size—and it uses tools like `convert_temperature` and `convert_digital_storage`. It reads context, plans the sequence of actions, executes them all, and presents a single result. No need to prompt for each step. Windsurf figures out that you need both conversions and runs them in order. This saves time compared to needing multiple manual prompts on other IDEs.

Length & Weight Conversions

The MCP Server handles standard physical unit changes fast. Use `convert_length` when you need distances—it swaps between metric and imperial units (like miles to feet). Similarly, if you're dealing with packages or materials, `convert_weight` takes care of the math for weights, moving between pounds, ounces, and kilograms. This engine guarantees accuracy because it uses deterministic calculations. You get exact conversions every time.

Temperature and Storage Math

Calculations aren't limited to length or weight. The server can handle `convert_temperature`, moving between Celsius, Fahrenheit, and Kelvin units instantly. Plus, if you’re working with digital files, `convert_digital_storage` lets you scale storage measurements using binary prefixes (like KB to MB). These tools work together so your AI client doesn't lose context when switching domains.

Setup guide

Set up Universal Unit Converter MCP in Windsurf

Prerequisites

Windsurf IDE installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Click the Cascade assistant icon in the sidebar, then click the hammer icon (🔨) at the top of the panel. Select "Configure" to open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json.
2

Add the Universal Unit Converter MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into the mcpServers object. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Refresh MCPs

Go back to the hammer icon (🔨) in Cascade and click "Refresh". Windsurf will detect the new server. No full restart is needed — the connection is hot-reloaded.
4

Verify in Cascade

Start a new Cascade conversation and ask something like "Show my Universal Unit Converter payment history." If connected, Cascade will call the Universal Unit Converter tools directly. You will see a green dot next to the server name in the MCP panel.
