What is the Uploadcare MCP Server?
Connect your Uploadcare account to any AI agent to fully manage your file handling and CDN media infrastructure via natural conversation.
What you can do
- File Management — List uploaded assets, retrieve specific file technical metadata (like dimensions and CDN URLs), and manage permanent storage states.
- Bulk Operations — Efficiently batch store or batch delete multiple temporary or permanent files in a single operation.
- File Transport — Copy existing files manually to local or remote storage targets, directly through your AI agent.
- Groups & Collections — List immutable file collections (groups) and inspect which individual files are contained within them.
- Project Analytics — Retrieve your Uploadcare project-level metadata, checking your current account storage and bandwidth consumption in real time.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Uploadcare Public and Secret Keys
- Start managing your media infrastructure from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Your AI agent becomes the control center for your media distribution platform.
Who is this for?
- Software Engineers — debug upload issues, quickly retrieve CDN URLs, and inspect file technical metadata without opening the dashboard.
- Content Managers — clean up unused assets, organize file groups, and permanently delete massive batches of files using just natural language.
- DevOps Teams — monitor project storage limits, bandwidth usage, and automate the copying of files to external S3 buckets.
- Product Teams — audit recent user uploads and ensure temporary unneeded files aren't taking up storage quotas.

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI agent batch delete unused Uploadcare files?
Yes! Provide your agent with the list of unused UUIDs or ask it to identify temporary incomplete uploads, and simply command it to batch delete these assets. The agent uses the batch_delete_files tool to permanently erase them from the CDN instantly, freeing up your project's storage.
How can I quickly check my current CDN bandwidth and storage usage?
Instead of digging through the web dashboard, ask your AI agent to get project info. It instantly fetches your Uploadcare project-level metadata, returning your precise storage usage (bytes), traffic bandwidth usage, and active file count. Perfect for quick billing audits.
Will my temporary UI uploads expire automatically?
By default, temporary files uploaded via your front-end will be wiped after 24 hours. To prevent this, you can ask your agent to store this file <UUID> or batch store a bunch of UUIDs. The agent communicates with Uploadcare to mark the files as permanently stored, saving them from the garbage collector.
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.
