Prerequisites
- Windsurf with MCP support (recent versions)
Setup
1
Open Cascade's MCP panel
In Windsurf, open Cascade → Plugins / MCP servers (the entry point is in the Cascade sidebar).
2
Add the Arcus server
Add a new server with the following configuration:Windsurf reads MCP servers from
~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json. Save and reload Cascade.3
Authenticate
On the first request to the server, Windsurf opens a browser tab for OAuth sign-in. Complete the flow and return to Cascade — the connection becomes active.
4
Try it
Ask Cascade:
What does the response to GET /v1/positions?address={address} look like? Include the field types.
Cascade will call the MCP server, fetch the relevant page, and ground its answer in the live spec.Notes
- If you don’t see an authentication prompt, your Windsurf build may predate remote-MCP OAuth support — update and try again.
- For the underlying server details, see the MCP server overview.
