Windsurf Linear list_issues

Add Linear to Windsurf

1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.linear.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}

2. 02

   Save the file and restart Windsurf.

3. 03

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

4. 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
