Windsurf ainote project_write

How to: Windsurf ainote project_write

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:project_write

Add ainote to Windsurf

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ainote": {
      "serverUrl": "https://api.ainote.dev/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

ainote will not start until these are set, so project_write never becomes available.

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.
