Windsurf Cronus UI get_component

How to: Windsurf Cronus UI get_component

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:get_component

Add Cronus UI to Windsurf

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cronus-ui": {
      "serverUrl": "https://aicronus.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

Cronus UI will not start until these are set, so get_component never becomes available.

  • CRONUS_UI_REGISTRY
  • CRONUS_MCP_CLI_CMD
  • CRONUS_MCP_CLI_TIMEOUT_MS

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.
