Automated Infrastructure Setup with Windsurf

Windsurf figures out the whole deployment process for you, chaining multiple actions into one goal. Want a secure web stack? You tell it to set up a server and block off ports; it handles running `create_server`, `create_network`, and `create_firewall_rule` automatically. It doesn't stop when the first step is done. Cascade reads context, plans the whole sequence (like getting an IP via `list_ips` then assigning it with `assign_ip`), executes everything, and shows you the final result. You just set the goal.

Database Management for Windsurf

Need to spin up a database cluster? Windsurf manages the whole lifecycle without prompting you after every step. It can look at `list_database_types` first, figure out the right plan, and then run `create_database` on your behalf. This is useful for multi-stage deployments where you need to confirm parameters across several services. You define the requirement, and Windsurf handles the calls needed to provision the managed database instance.

Storage Backup and Restoration with MCP Server

If your data changes, Windsurf can roll back the entire system state. It finds a backup using `list_storages` and then executes `restore_storage` to bring everything back online. It also handles cloning resources. If you need a safe copy of an environment before testing new code, just ask it to run `clone_storage`. The MCP Server manages the entire data flow.

Setup guide

Set up UpCloud 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 UpCloud 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.

Common questions about UpCloud MCP in Windsurf

The Windsurf agent treats UpCloud as a fully managed source of truth. You don't write code for every API call; you just state the goal, and Windsurf executes the necessary tools against the UpCloud MCP Server.

Yes. Windsurf can run a sequence of calls that includes fetching account details using `get_account` and getting the monthly summary via `get_billing_summary`. It presents this data as part of its final plan output.

It manages all infrastructure resources. This includes compute details from `get_server`, networking configurations like SDN private networks, and storage contents listed through `list_object_storages`.

Absolutely. Windsurf manages complex networking tasks by creating resources like routers (`create_router`) and load balancers, ensuring your entire network setup is consistent across the MCP Server.

The server touches account audit logs. You can use `list_audit_logs` to review who made changes and when, giving you full visibility into usage patterns and system access.
