Windsurf GitHub list_pull_requests

How to: Windsurf GitHub list_pull_requests

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:list_pull_requests

Add GitHub to Windsurf

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "github-mcp-server": {
      "serverUrl": "https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

Same tool, other clients

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.
