About Vapi MCP Server
Connect your Vapi account to any AI agent and bring the power of automated voice communication into your standard conversational workspace.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple Vapi tool calls autonomously — query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste the 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
- Phone Calling — Send commands instructing the agent to place outbound human-like phone calls and establish web ringing connections through Vapi's PSTN/WebRTC capabilities.
- Call Transcripts — Search through recent call logs, retrieve call details natively, and pull raw voice-to-text transcripts or conversation metrics.
- Persona Engineering — Ask your chat agent to build new Vapi assistants, update their system prompts, change its specific model, or mutate Voice IDs on the fly.
- Squad Routing — List available telephony numbers, tools, and multi-agent squads natively to configure advanced conversational pathways.
The Vapi MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
