What is the Replicate MCP Server?
Connect your conversational assistant directly to the Replicate ecosystem. This integration grants your AI the ability to interact programmatically with a vast library of open-source machine learning models without running them on your local hardware. From orchestrating complex image generations to spinning up specialized language models, you can command AI workflows directly from your chat.
What you can do
- Execute Predictions — Command the assistant to execute specific model versions on your behalf (
create_prediction) by supplying a payload of variables. Monitor long-running processes by retrieving outputs and execution status reliably (get_prediction) or cancel them at will (cancel_prediction). - Discover Models — Instruct the AI to intelligently scan the Replicate platform for models matching a specific use case using
search_models. You can also explore trending and categorized models by leveraging thelist_collectionsaction. - Analyze Model Metadata — Whenever you discover a new model, query its precise owner and name (
get_model) to extract the exact schema and parameter requirements necessary for a successful execution. You can also view a log of your own executed tasks (list_predictions).
How it works
- Install the Replicate platform extension module in your MCP.
- Provide your personal
Replicate API Token, extracted from your Replicate Account Settings panel. Deposit it securely into the configuration variables below. - Prompt your assistant organically: "Search for a high-quality video generation model, evaluate its parameter schema, and start generating a clip using the prompt 'a cat walking on Mars'."
Who is this for?
- AI Developers & Researchers — Explore and test novel open-source algorithms by generating quick predictions without modifying Python notebook code.
- Content Creators — Execute specialized image, audio, or video generation tasks by directly delegating workflows to your conversational assistant.
- Builders — Mix and match the output of various specialized models intelligently using natural language instructions.

Frequently asked questions
Can the agent pass a JSON payload directly into a Replicate model?
Yes. You can utilize the create_prediction action and attach the payload parameter filled out with any required input schema (e.g., specific prompt, num_inference_steps). Since models change inputs constantly, you should always ask your assistant to fetch the schema details first via get_model to verify keys.
Does the prediction command return results instantly?
No, Replicate's API operates asynchronously. The initial command gives your assistant an ID. You must then ask your AI companion to query the get_prediction tool periodically using that generated ID until it displays the completed status along with the generated web URLs or generated strings.
Can the AI browse trending or curated model collections?
Yes. Use the list_collections tool to browse curated groups of models organized by category — such as image generation, text-to-speech, or video. Each collection includes a slug and description so you can quickly identify the right set of models for your use case.
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.
