What is the Heroku (PaaS) MCP Server?

Connect your Heroku account to any AI agent and take full control of your cloud-native application management and dyno orchestration through natural conversation.

What you can do

App Management — List all hosted applications, create new deployment boundaries, and fetch intricate runtime constraints and framework details directly from your agent
Dyno Orchestration — List individual containerized dynos, track their status (up, crashed, idle), and selectively reboot specific instances or entire clusters
Environment & Config — Audit decrypted application environment variables (Config Vars) and retrieve third-party platform add-ons like Postgres or Redis
Operational Control — Rapidly toggle maintenance mode to block inbound requests during migrations and perform hard reboots on stalled application clusters
Infrastructure Audit — Identify underlying executing stacks (e.g. heroku-24), regional datacenter placements (US/EU), and total slug size in memory

Who is this for?

DevOps Engineers — monitor dyno health and perform rolling restarts or cluster reboots through natural conversation
Backend Developers — check environment variables, add-on statuses, and deployment regions without leaving your IDE or switching to the dashboard
System Admins — manage maintenance windows and application lifecycles across multiple environments and regions efficiently

Built-in capabilities (10)

create_app

Provision a fresh structural App container on Heroku

delete_app

Traffic routing instantly yields persistent 404/no web-dynos responses. Highly destructive. Permanently wipe an active App from Heroku servers

get_app_info

g. heroku-22, heroku-24). Confirms exact application routing URL mapping, total slug (code) size in memory, and regional datacenter placements (US or EU) verifying global latency strategies. Fetch intricate runtime constraints and framework details of an App

list_addons

Retrieve third-party Platform Add-ons mapping to an App

list_apps

Use this to discover App IDs, web URL designations, and git repository targets required to execute operational commands downstream. List all standard applications actively hosted on Heroku PaaS

list_config_vars

Retrieves highly confidential database tokens `DATABASE_URL`, SendGrid passwords, or OAuth keys. Dump decrypted Application Environment Variables

list_dynos

1, worker.1). Tracks exactly whether the dyno is "up", "crashed", "idle", or "starting" based on the internal slug runner engine's telemetry. List discrete containerized Dynos executing inside an App

restart_all_dynos

Often resolves ephemeral memory-leaks in Node.js or Ruby runtimes stalling standard request processing. Hard reboot all containers tied to an entire Application

restart_specific_dyno

Exceedingly useful for unsticking hung asynchronous queue workers without impacting active web traffic on the primary frontend replicas. Selectively reboot one isolated Dyno instance (e.g. worker.2)

toggle_maintenance_mode

Crucial for orchestrating complex sequential database migrations without encountering corrupted states from active sessions. Rapidly switch an Application's Maintenance Mode switch

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I see the status of my dynos through my agent?

Yes. Use the list_dynos tool to see the real-time status of each container process (e.g. web.1, worker.1). You'll know exactly if a dyno is up, crashed, starting, or idle.

How do I check my application's environment variables?

The list_config_vars tool allows your agent to dump the full dictionary of environment variables injected into your dynos, including sensitive keys like DATABASE_URL or API tokens.

Can my agent restart a specific hung worker without affecting the web traffic?

Absolutely. Use the restart_specific_dyno tool to reboot a single instance (e.g. worker.2). This is perfect for unsticking hung asynchronous queue workers without impacting your primary frontend traffic.

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.
