What is the Airbrake MCP Server?
Connect your Airbrake account to any AI agent and manage your entire error monitoring workflow through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Project Management — List all monitored projects and fetch detailed project configuration
- Error Group Analysis — List error groups by project with occurrence counts, severity, and last-seen timestamps
- Deep Error Inspection — Inspect individual error groups with full stack traces, affected users, and frequency data
- Error Notices — List individual error occurrences within a group and report custom errors for tracking
- Deployment Tracking — List all tracked Installments and record new releases with version and environment info
- Environment Overview — View all configured environments (production, staging, development) per project
- Health Check — Verify API connectivity and account status
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your API Key from your Airbrake account settings
3. Start monitoring errors from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- Engineering Teams — investigate error spikes and review stack traces without leaving the code editor
- DevOps — track deployments and correlate releases with error rates
- QA Teams — monitor error groups across environments and report custom test failures

Why teams choose Vinkius for Airbrake in Windsurf
The Airbrake MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 10 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in Windsurf only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

How Vinkius secures
Airbrake for Windsurf
Every tool call from Windsurf to the Airbrake MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
Can my AI show me the most recent error groups for a project?
Yes. Use the list_error_groups tool with the project ID. The agent returns all error groups with occurrence counts, severity levels, and the last time each error was seen.
How do I track a Installment through the AI?
Use the track_Install tool with the project ID, version string, and environment name. The agent records the Installment in Airbrake so you can correlate it with error rate changes.
Can I report a custom error to Airbrake via my AI agent?
Yes. The report_notice tool sends a custom error with a type and message to any project. This is useful for tracking non-exception events or test failures.
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.
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.
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.
