How to Use the StarRocks MCP in Windsurf

Q: Can Windsurf help me inventory all StarRocks tables?

Yes. It will start by calling listdatabases to get all scopes, then iterates through every database using listtables. You won't write the iteration logic.

Q: Which tools does Windsurf use to monitor StarRocks performance?

It uses several: getclusterinfo checks overall health. For specific data limits, it calls getstorageusage. It's built for comprehensive status reports.

Q: If I need to see the schema of a table in StarRocks, how does Windsurf do it?

You give it the target table. Windsurf automatically calls gettableschema and presents the full structure—column names, types, everything.

Autonomous Query Execution with Windsurf

Set a goal: 'Find the average sales for Q3.' Windsurf reads that, figures out you need `execute_query`, and runs it. It's multi-step process execution without prompting you. It handles the necessary tool calling—writing the query, executing it against StarRocks, and formatting the final result.

Discover Data Assets with Windsurf

Need to map out a new data source? Give Windsurf the goal. It will use `list_databases` first, then chain calls to `list_tables`. You don't write the loops; it figures them out for you. It can also verify what views exist by running `list_views` across an entire database context.

Audit StarRocks Resources with Windsurf

Want to know if your cluster is stable? Tell Windsurf to check the status. It'll call `get_cluster_info`, then might follow up by calling `list_jobs` to see if any failed pipelines need fixing. It can also track resource limits using `get_storage_usage` and listing backend nodes with `list_nodes`.

Setup guide

Set up StarRocks MCP in Windsurf

Prerequisites

Windsurf IDE installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Click the Cascade assistant icon in the sidebar, then click the hammer icon (🔨) at the top of the panel. Select "Configure" to open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json.

Add the StarRocks MCP

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into the mcpServers object. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Refresh MCPs

Go back to the hammer icon (🔨) in Cascade and click "Refresh". Windsurf will detect the new server. No full restart is needed — the connection is hot-reloaded.
4

Verify in Cascade

Start a new Cascade conversation and ask something like "Show my StarRocks payment history." If connected, Cascade will call the StarRocks tools directly. You will see a green dot next to the server name in the MCP panel.
