Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Axiom MCP Server?
Connect your Axiom account to any AI agent to streamline your observability and log management workflows through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Data Ingestion & Querying — Ingest JSON, NDJSON, or CSV data and run complex Axiom Processing Language (APL) queries to analyze logs in real-time.
- Dataset Management — List, create, and update datasets to organize your telemetry and infrastructure data efficiently.
- Monitoring & Alerts — Manage monitors and notifiers to stay informed about system performance, errors, and anomalies.
- Dashboards & Annotations — Access dashboards and create annotations to visualize trends and mark significant system events.
- Organization Insights — Retrieve user information, API tokens, and organization details to maintain secure and authorized access.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Axiom API Token and optional Organization ID
- Start analyzing your logs and managing infrastructure from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- DevOps & SREs — instantly query logs for errors, check monitor statuses, and manage alerts without leaving the terminal or chat.
- Software Engineers — debug production issues by running APL queries directly from the code editor to find specific trace IDs or logs.
- Data Analysts — ingest and analyze large datasets using Axiom's powerful processing language through simple natural language prompts.

Axiom in Windsurf
Axiom and 4,000+ other MCP servers. One platform. One governance layer.
Teams that connect Axiom to Windsurf through Vinkius don't need to source, host, or maintain individual MCP servers. Every tool call runs inside a hardened runtime with credential isolation, DLP, and a signed audit chain.

| Infrastructure | Self-hosted | Sandboxed V8 isolates |
| Credential handling | Plaintext in config | Vault + runtime injection |
| Data loss prevention | None | Configurable DLP policies |
| Kill switch | None | Global instant shutdown |
| Financial circuit breakers | None | Per-server limits + alerts |
| Audit trail | None | Ed25519 signed logs |
| SIEM log streaming | None | Splunk, Datadog, Webhook |

Why teams choose Vinkius for Axiom in Windsurf
The Axiom 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 31 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.

* Every 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 optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
Axiom for Windsurf
Every tool call from Windsurf to the Axiom MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
Can I run complex log analysis using Axiom Processing Language (APL)?
Yes! Use the run_query tool to execute any APL string. You can specify start_time and end_time to filter your data and get precise analytical results directly in the chat.
How do I send new log data to my Axiom datasets?
You can use the ingest_data tool. Simply provide the dataset_name, the data payload, and the content_type (JSON, NDJSON, or CSV) to stream data into your Axiom account.
Is it possible to manage system monitors and alerts through this integration?
Absolutely. You have access to a full suite of tools including list_monitors, create_monitor, and update_monitor to configure threshold or anomaly detection alerts based on your APL queries.
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.
Server not connecting
Check Settings → MCP for the server status. Try toggling it off and on.
