What is the Langfuse (LLM Tracing & Evals) MCP Server?
Connect your Langfuse account to any AI agent and take full control of your LLM observability, prompt management, and quality evaluation through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Trace Orchestration — List and retrieve detailed traces of LLM API sessions, exposing latencies, token counts, and exact chained payloads directly from your agent
- Prompt Vault Access — Query actively managed prompt templates and versions to inspect system instructions and expected input variables
- Observation Analysis — Deep-dive into individual spans, events, and generations within a trace to pinpoint failures or performance bottlenecks securely
- Evaluation & Scoring — Attach structured human feedback or automated evaluation metrics to specific traces to monitor model grounding and accuracy
- Usage Metrics — Generate aggregated daily reports on USD costs and average latency to track your AI infrastructure spending in real-time
- Session Monitoring — Extract correlated user sessions to understand multi-turn interaction boundaries and improve long-term agentic workflows
How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your Langfuse API URL, Public Key, and Secret Key
3. Start monitoring your LLM application from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- LLM Engineers — debug complex AI chains and measure exact token latencies through natural conversation without manual dashboard searching
- Product Owners — monitor daily AI costs and user satisfaction scores across multiple production environments
- Data Scientists — manage prompt templates and audit evaluation metrics to improve model response quality and grounding efficiently

Frequently asked questions
Can I see the exact system instruction for a specific prompt version?
Yes. Use the list_prompts tool to browse your managed templates. Your agent can retrieve the exact text and variables for any deployed prompt version, making it easy to audit AI logic through natural conversation.
How do I log human feedback for a specific trace?
Use the create_score tool by providing the Trace ID and a JSON payload defining the score name (e.g. 'user-satisfaction') and value. Your agent will attach this structured data directly to the Langfuse record.
Can my agent report on my LLM spending for the current day?
Absolutely. The get_daily_metrics tool retrieves aggregated USD costs and average latency metrics from Langfuse. Your agent can summarize these statistics to help you monitor your infrastructure budget in real-time.
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.
