About ZeroTier MCP Server

Connect your ZeroTier infrastructure to any AI agent to orchestrate software-defined networks through natural language. This server bridges the gap between ZeroTier Central management and your local node operations.

Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple ZeroTier tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 13 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.

What you can do

  • Central Management — List all virtual networks and fetch detailed configurations from ZeroTier Central.
  • Member Authorization — Instantly authorize or de-authorize nodes on your private networks using their Member IDs.
  • Local Node Control — Check your local node status, version, and address, or join/leave networks directly from your terminal or IDE.
  • Peer Discovery — List all known peers and network paths to troubleshoot connectivity issues in real-time.
  • Controller Operations — Manage standalone network controllers and update network configurations programmatically.

The ZeroTier MCP Server exposes 13 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

ZeroTier + Windsurf FAQ

Common questions about integrating ZeroTier MCP Server with Windsurf.

01

How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?

Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
02

Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?

Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
03

Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?

Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
