Windsurf fcc-spectrum-mcp-server fcc_spectrum_search_frequencies

How to: Windsurf fcc-spectrum-mcp-server fcc_spectrum_search_frequencies

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:fcc_spectrum_search_frequencies

Add fcc-spectrum-mcp-server to Windsurf

  1. 01

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

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

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that fcc-spectrum-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

fcc-spectrum-mcp-server will not start until these are set, so fcc_spectrum_search_frequencies never becomes available.

  • MCP_LOG_LEVEL
  • FCC_SPECTRUM_MIRROR_DIR
  • FCC_SPECTRUM_SERVICES
  • FCC_SPECTRUM_REDACT_INDIVIDUALS
  • FCC_SPECTRUM_BASE_URL

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 2 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.
