Windsurf Linked API retrieve_ssi

How to: Windsurf Linked API retrieve_ssi

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:retrieve_ssi

Add Linked API to Windsurf

01
Open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "linkedapi-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.linkedapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

02
Save the file and restart Windsurf.
03
Ask for something retrieve_ssi does. Windsurf lists the server's tools on connect and calls retrieve_ssi itself — you do not invoke it by name.
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Linked API'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

Linked API will not start until these are set, so retrieve_ssi never becomes available.

IDENTIFICATION_TOKEN

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 29 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.
