Windsurf unhcr refugees mcp server unhcr_get_asylum_applications
How to: Windsurf unhcr refugees mcp server unhcr_get_asylum_applications
Add unhcr refugees mcp server to Windsurf
-
01
Open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.
{
"mcpServers": {
"unhcr-refugees-mcp-server": {
"serverUrl": "https://unhcr-refugees.caseyjhand.com/mcp"
}
}
}-
02
Save the file and restart Windsurf.
-
03
Ask for something unhcr_get_asylum_applications does. Windsurf lists the server's tools on connect and calls unhcr_get_asylum_applications itself — you do not invoke it by name.
-
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that unhcr refugees 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
unhcr refugees mcp server will not start until these are set, so unhcr_get_asylum_applications never becomes available.

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 4 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.
