What is the SuperTokens MCP Server?
Connect your SuperTokens Core instance to any AI agent to manage user lifecycles, session security, and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) through natural language.
What you can do
- User Management — Sign up new users, sign in existing ones, and retrieve detailed user profiles or link multiple accounts together.
- Session Control — Create, refresh, and revoke sessions (JWT or database-backed) to maintain tight security over user access.
- RBAC & Permissions — Create roles, define permissions, and assign them to users to manage authorization levels dynamically.
- User Metadata — Store and update custom JSON metadata for users to track preferences or application-specific data.
- Account Linking — Seamlessly link or unlink different recipe user IDs to a primary user identity.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your SuperTokens Core URL and API Key
- Start managing your authentication layer from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Backend Developers — quickly debug user sessions or update roles without writing manual scripts or using a CLI.
- Support Teams — inspect user metadata and account status to resolve login issues or permission errors instantly.
- Security Engineers — audit roles and revoke suspicious sessions directly through a conversational interface.

Frequently asked questions
Can I retrieve specific user information using their ID?
Yes, by using the get_user tool with the specific User ID, you can fetch the full profile, including email and account linking status.
How do I assign a specific role like 'admin' to a user?
You can use the assign_role_to_user tool. Just provide the User ID and the role name to update their permissions immediately.
Is it possible to update custom user data or preferences?
Absolutely. The update_user_metadata tool allows you to pass a JSON object to store or update custom information for any user.
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.
