What is the OpenSearch Vector MCP Server?
Turn your OpenSearch cluster into an AI-native vector database. Create k-NN indexes, upsert embeddings, run similarity searches, and inspect index configurations — all through natural conversation with your AI agent.
What you can do
- Vector Search — Execute k-Nearest Neighbors queries against any k-NN index with custom top-K limits and dense float vectors
- Index Management — List all cluster indexes with health status and document counts, or inspect a specific index's vector dimension, engine config, and distance metric
- Create Index — Provision new k-NN indexes optimized for cosine similarity with configurable vector dimensions (384, 768, 1536, etc.)
- Document Operations — Upsert vector documents with metadata, or delete documents from the embedding space by ID
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your OpenSearch Host, Username, and Password
- Start managing your vector store from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- ML engineers — test similarity queries against production embeddings without writing curl commands
- RAG developers — index and retrieve context documents for retrieval-augmented generation pipelines
- Data teams — inspect index health, document counts, and vector configurations through conversation instead of Kibana dashboards
Built-in capabilities (6)
knn: true` and mapping a rigid dynamic dense vector field optimized for cosine similarity. Create a new native OpenSearch KNN index ready for vector embeddings
Delete an explicit vector document bounding from OpenSearch
Retrieve explicit OpenSearch index mapping and settings
This executes a fast transactional atomic insertion into the embedding space. Upsert a singular vector document directly into an OpenSearch KNN index
List all explicit indexes residing on the OpenSearch cluster
Provide the exact index name and a JSON-stringified dense float vector array to find conceptually similar embeddings natively. Execute a K-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) vector search against OpenSearch
Why Windsurf?
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple OpenSearch Vector tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 6 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.

Frequently asked questions
What vector dimensions does it support?
Any dimension supported by OpenSearch k-NN. Common values: 384 (MiniLM), 768 (BERT/all-mpnet), 1536 (OpenAI text-embedding-ada-002), 3072 (text-embedding-3-large). When creating an index, specify the exact dimension and the agent provisions the mapping automatically.
Can I delete an entire index or just individual documents?
Currently, the agent supports deleting individual documents by ID from an index. Full index deletion is not exposed through this integration to prevent accidental data loss. If you need to drop an index, use the OpenSearch Dashboards or direct API calls.
Does this work with Amazon OpenSearch Service (managed)?
Yes. Provide the Amazon OpenSearch Service endpoint as the host (e.g., https://search-xxx.us-east-1.es.amazonaws.com) along with the master username and password. The integration uses standard REST APIs that work identically on managed and self-hosted clusters.
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.
Server not connecting
Check Settings → MCP for the server status. Try toggling it off and on.
