Windsurf Animica animica_embed

How to: Windsurf Animica animica_embed

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:animica_embed

Add Animica to Windsurf

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "animica": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.animica.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

Animica will not start until these are set, so animica_embed never becomes available.

  • ANIMICA_API_KEY
  • ANIMICA_RPC_URL
  • ANIMICA_BASE_URL
  • ANIMICA_POOL_URL
  • ANIMICA_BEACON_URL
  • ANIMICA_MODEL
  • ANIMICA_MCP_TIMEOUT_S

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.
