Windsurf cyanheads mcp server cyanheads_search_catalog

How to: Windsurf cyanheads mcp server cyanheads_search_catalog

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:cyanheads_search_catalog

Add cyanheads mcp server to Windsurf

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cyanheads-mcp-server": {
      "serverUrl": "https://cyanheads.caseyjhand.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

cyanheads mcp server will not start until these are set, so cyanheads_search_catalog never becomes available.

  • MCP_LOG_LEVEL
  • CATALOG_URL
  • CATALOG_FETCH_TIMEOUT_MS
  • CATALOG_REFRESH_SECONDS
  • EMBEDDING_MODEL_ID
  • SIMILARITY_FLOOR

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.
