Windsurf Dead Man's Snitch MCP by usefulapi deadmanssnitch_remove_tag

How to: Windsurf Dead Man's Snitch MCP by usefulapi deadmanssnitch_remove_tag

client:Windsurf transport:streamable-http tool:deadmanssnitch_remove_tag

Add Dead Man's Snitch MCP by usefulapi to Windsurf

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dead-mans-snitch": {
      "serverUrl": "https://dead-mans-snitch.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Windsurf.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Dead Man's Snitch MCP by usefulapi'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

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 12 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.
