Windsurf sonar sonar_remove_competitor

How to: Windsurf sonar sonar_remove_competitor

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:sonar_remove_competitor

Add sonar to Windsurf

  1. 01

    Open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sonar": {
      "serverUrl": "https://trysonar.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

    Ask for something sonar_remove_competitor does. Windsurf lists the server's tools on connect and calls sonar_remove_competitor itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that sonar's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Global only — Windsurf has no per-project MCP config. Refresh Cascade after saving. Windsurf docs

Set these first

sonar will not start until these are set, so sonar_remove_competitor never becomes available.

  • SONAR_API_KEY
  • SONAR_API_URL

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
