Windsurf Coding Guides Prompt/list_guides

How to: Windsurf Coding Guides list_guides

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http prompt:list_guides

Add Coding Guides to Windsurf

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codeguide-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://codeguide-mcp-86057491046.europe-west1.run.app/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

    list_guides is surfaced in the client's prompt or command menu. Unlike a tool, you invoke it deliberately — Windsurf will not call it for you.

  3. 04

    If it does not appear, check that Coding Guides is connected and that you are looking at its prompts rather than its tools.

Global only — Windsurf has no per-project MCP config. Refresh Cascade after saving. Windsurf docs

Same prompt, other clients

Read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling prompts/list on 24 September 2026. A listing does not declare its prompts, so asking is the only way to know them, and this is what the server actually offers rather than what its listing claims. Names only are stored; connect the server for each prompt's arguments.
