What is the Unstructured MCP Server?
Connect your Unstructured.io account to any AI agent to automate data ingestion and document processing pipelines seamlessly. Transform complex files into clean, AI-ready data without leaving your workflow.
What you can do
- Data Sources — List all configured remote data connectors (e.g. S3, GCS, SharePoint) to see where documents can be pulled from.
- Data Destinations — Browse target locations (like Vector DBs or SQL databases) where structured output is sent.
- Processing Workflows — List end-to-end pipelines, retrieve specific workflow configurations, and explore source-destination mappings.
- Job Execution — Manually trigger immediate document ingestion and partitioning jobs, and track their execution IDs.
- Job Monitoring — List active and historical workflow execution jobs to monitor the progress of your document processing tasks.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Unstructured API Key and API URL
- Start managing your data pipelines from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Your AI agent becomes a command center for your entire RAG and knowledge base ingestion pipelines.
Who is this for?
- Data Engineers — troubleshoot and trigger ingestion workflows without opening the Unstructured dashboard.
- AI Developers — monitor RAG pipelines and ensure vector databases are populated with clean data directly from code editors.
- MLOps Teams — track historical processing jobs and verify that scheduled syncs completed successfully.
- Product Teams — quickly audit available sources and destinations when planning new feature integrations.

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI agent trigger an immediate document processing job?
Yes! If you have a workflow configured to pull files from an S3 bucket and load them into a Pinecone index, you can ask your agent to trigger workflow XYZ. It will start the execution and return the new Job ID, which you can use to track the progress.
How can I verify if my RAG pipelines are failing or succeeding?
Ask your agent to list your workflow jobs. It will securely connect to Unstructured's engine and return historical and active executions, displaying statuses such as 'completed', 'failed', or 'in_progress'. This is extremely useful for MLOps engineers diagnosing ingestion alerts directly in their terminal.
Can I edit the destination database directly through the agent?
This server is focused on auditing and executing your existing pipelines. Currently, you can list all connections (sources and destinations) and obtain their details, but creating or destructively modifying vector database connectors must be done inside the Unstructured dashboard for security.
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.
