Windsurf sanctions screening mcp server sanctions_get_entity

How to: Windsurf sanctions screening mcp server sanctions_get_entity

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:sanctions_get_entity

Add sanctions screening mcp server to Windsurf

  1. 01

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

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

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that sanctions screening 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

sanctions screening mcp server will not start until these are set, so sanctions_get_entity never becomes available.

  • MCP_LOG_LEVEL
  • SANCTIONS_MIRROR_PATH
  • SANCTIONS_FUZZY_MIN_SCORE
  • SANCTIONS_FUZZY_MAX_RESULTS

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.
