Connect your Dagster (Plus or open-source) instance to any AI agent and take full control of your data orchestration and asset management through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Job Orchestration — List and audit all data jobs available in your Dagster server to understand active pipeline boundaries
- Run Monitoring — Fetch chronological history of recent job runs and retrieve detailed status and execution logs for specific run IDs
- Asset Tracking — Enumerate software-defined assets to identify data dependencies and verify physical storage mappings
- Schedules & Sensors — List all configured job schedules and active sensors listening for external events to audit automation triggers
- Environment Audit — Identify deployment boundaries and verify instance connectivity across Dagster Plus or self-hosted clusters
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Dagster URL and User API Token (found in Deployment Settings > Tokens)
- Start managing your data pipelines from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

Frequently asked questions
Can my agent list all software-defined assets in Dagster?
Yes. Use the 'list_assets' tool. Your agent will retrieve all software-defined assets, allowing you to identify data dependencies and verify physical storage mappings within your pipelines.
How do I check the status of a specific job run?
Provide the 'run_id' to the 'get_run' tool. Your agent will fetch detailed information for that specific execution, including status (Success, Failure, In Progress) and detailed execution logs.
Can I see active sensors and schedules via the agent?
Absolutely. Use the 'list_schedules' and 'list_sensors' tools. Your agent will pull the active automation triggers, allowing you to audit which jobs are scheduled and which sensors are listening for external events.
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.
