How to Use the Veraset MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I find out what datasets are available in Veraset using Windsurf?

You just tell your agent to run listmobilitydatasets. It sends a list of all accessible mobility dataset IDs, so you know exactly where to start.

Q: What happens if I need more columns for my query against Veraset?

Use the getdatasetschema tool. That function returns the column definitions and data types, letting you adjust your SQL query before running it on the MCP Server.

Q: Can I check if a long-running job in Veraset is still active using Windsurf?

Yep. You use getquerystatus and pass in the query ID that executesqlquery gives you. It tells you the current progress or if it hit an error.

Q: Does Veraset support different data formats when I download results?

The MCP Server handles the output retrieval via getqueryresults. You can then use generatedownloadlink to get a pre-signed URL, which lets you pull the final file contents.

Run and Manage Live Queries with the MCP Server

Need to run a query? Your agent calls `execute_sql_query` using a dataset ID and ANSI SQL. It gets back a unique query ID, which you can track later. You can check if it's done or what stage it's in by calling `get_query_status`. If the job is stuck, use `cancel_running_query` to abort the task immediately.

Explore and Sample Veraset Data

Before writing any code, you gotta know what you're working with. The agent first calls `list_mobility_datasets` to see all available data sources in Veraset. Then it checks the structure using `get_dataset_schema` or just grabs a quick look at the data sample with `get_dataset_sample`.

Download and Retrieve Results

Once the query finishes, you pull the results via `get_query_results`, handling pagination if there's a lot of output. If you need it for another system, `generate_download_link` gives you a temporary S3 URL to download the file directly.

Setup guide

Set up Veraset 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 Veraset 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 Veraset payment history." If connected, Cascade will call the Veraset tools directly. You will see a green dot next to the server name in the MCP panel.
