Windsurf Linear get_issue
How to: Windsurf Linear get_issue
Add Linear to Windsurf
-
01
Open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp": {
"serverUrl": "https://mcp.linear.app/mcp"
}
}
}
-
02
Save the file and restart Windsurf.
-
03
Ask for something get_issue does. Windsurf lists the server's tools on connect and calls get_issue itself — you do not invoke it by name.
-
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Linear'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
Same tool, other clients
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.
