Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Cerebras Inference MCP Server?
Connect to the Cerebras Inference platform to leverage the world's fastest AI inference. This MCP server allows your AI agent to interact with state-of-the-art models like Llama 3.1 and others using the Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine (WSE) for unprecedented performance.
What you can do
- Chat & Text Completions — Generate high-speed responses using
create_chat_completionandcreate_completionwith support for streaming and tool calling. - Model Discovery — Explore available models and their specific details using
list_modelsandget_modelto choose the best fit for your task. - Batch Processing — Handle large-scale workloads asynchronously with
create_batch,list_batches, andcancel_batchfor efficient data processing. - File Management — Upload and manage JSONL files for batch jobs using
upload_fileandlist_filesdirectly from your agent. - Performance Metrics — Monitor your usage and performance metrics to optimize your inference workflows.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Cerebras API Key
- Start generating tokens at speeds you've never seen before in Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client.
Who is this for?
- AI Developers — build and test applications with near-instant model responses to maintain development momentum.
- Data Scientists — run large-scale batch inference on massive datasets using the asynchronous batch API.
- Product Teams — integrate high-performance LLMs into production environments where latency is a critical factor.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Cerebras Inference in Windsurf
The Cerebras Inference 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 15 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
Cerebras Inference for Windsurf
Every tool call from Windsurf to the Cerebras Inference MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I check which models are available for inference?
Use the list_models tool. It will return a list of all supported models, including high-performance options like Llama 3.1, which you can then use in create_chat_completion.
Can I process thousands of requests at once?
Yes. Use upload_file to provide your JSONL data and then create_batch to start an asynchronous processing job. You can monitor progress with get_batch.
Does this server support tool calling and structured outputs?
Yes. The create_chat_completion tool supports tools, tool_choice, and response_format parameters, allowing the model to interact with other functions or return valid JSON.
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.
