Windsurf IDE (Codeium Cascade) Setup Guide

Windsurf by Codeium is a next-generation AI-powered IDE. By configuring Digent Smart AI's Model Context Protocol (MCP) server in Windsurf, the Cascade agent gains real-time read and write tools for your WordPress site.

Configuration Steps

1. Open Windsurf IDE.
2. Open the command palette (Cmd + Shift + P on macOS, Ctrl + Shift + P on Windows).
3. Search for: Open MCP Configuration (or navigate to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json).
4. Add the Digent Smart AI MCP server to mcpServers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wordpress-production": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-sse",
        "https://gateway.digentsmartai.com/api/mcp/YOUR_SITE_UUID"
      ],
      "env": {
        "DIGENT_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

5. Save the file and reload Windsurf.

Using Cascade with WordPress

Open the Cascade chat panel on the right sidebar. You can prompt:

• "Cascade, check the health of my live WordPress site and list active plugins."
• "Read the active theme template for header.php and check if our Google Tag Manager snippet is present."
• "Optimize my database by flushing expired transients and cleaning auto-drafts."

Cascade will execute the appropriate MCP tool call with human approval prompts for write actions.
