Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the INI Parser Engine MCP Server?
When an AI Agent works with legacy infrastructure configs like php.ini, MySQL my.cnf, Git config, or .editorconfig, it needs to parse INI section syntax with absolute precision. This MCP uses the ini package (55M+ weekly downloads) — the same parser used by npm itself.
The Superpowers
- Bidirectional: INI to JSON and JSON to INI with section preservation.
- Full Syntax: Sections ([section]), nested keys (key.subkey=value), inline comments, and multiline values.
Built-in capabilities (1)
ini, my.cnf, .editorconfig, or Git config. Pass the raw INI or JSON content and the direction ("ini-to-json" or "json-to-ini"). The engine handles sections ([section]), inline comments, and nested keys deterministically. Converts INI configuration files to JSON and vice versa. Handles sections, key-value pairs, and comments. Powered by the ini package (55M+ weekly downloads)
Why Windsurf?
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple INI Parser Engine tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 1 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.

How Vinkius secures
INI Parser Engine for Windsurf
Every tool call from Windsurf to the INI Parser Engine MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
Does it preserve INI sections?
Yes. INI sections like [database] become nested JSON objects and are fully restored when converting back to INI format.
What config files does this work with?
Any INI-format file: php.ini, my.cnf (MySQL), .editorconfig, Git config, Windows .ini files, and custom application configs.
Does it handle comments?
Yes. Lines starting with ; or # are treated as comments and properly handled during parsing. Comments are stripped from the JSON output.
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.
