Windsurf Iris scan_launch_tool

How to: Windsurf Iris scan_launch_tool

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:scan_launch_tool

Add Iris to Windsurf

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "iris": {
      "serverUrl": "https://iriscan.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Iris'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

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 22 October 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.
