Windsurf Steam friend_list

How to: Windsurf Steam friend_list

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:friend_list

Add Steam to Windsurf

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "steam": {
      "serverUrl": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/steam/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

Steam will not start until these are set, so friend_list never becomes available.

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 14 November 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.
