Connect the Appwrite MCP server to Windsurf for deeper integration with the Appwrite API and documentation. It is a remote HTTP server, so there are no additional pre-requisites to install.
Open the Windsurf Settings page, head to the Cascade tab, find the Model Context Protocol (MCP) Servers section, and click on the View raw config button.
Update the mcp_config.json file to include the Appwrite MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"appwrite": {
"serverUrl": "https://mcp.appwrite.io/"
}
}
}
The server uses OAuth for authentication. When Windsurf first connects to the server, you are prompted to log in, and your browser opens so you can sign in to your Appwrite account and authorize access.
Once you save the details, head back to the MCP Servers section in the Windsurf Settings and click on the Refresh button.
Open Cascade chat in the Windsurf Editor and test your MCP integration. You can try out the following example prompts:
