Official website →

Configuration

Configuration type: JSON

File location: ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json (or via Windsurf Settings → MCP)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trinity-insights": {
      "url": "https://mcp.trinityinsights.io/mcp",
      "transport": "streamable-http",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TRINITY_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_TRINITY_API_KEY with the API key you will generate in the next step.

Setup steps

  1. Install Windsurf
    Download from windsurf.com (Mac, Windows, Linux).
  2. Retrieve your Trinity API key
    Dashboard → Settings → API Keys MCP. Create a key dedicated to Windsurf.
  3. Configure the MCP server
    Windsurf Settings → MCP → Add server. Provide the URL and Authorization header.
  4. Enable Cascade
    In Windsurf Cascade (the main assistant), Trinity Insights is available from the Tools menu.
  5. Test
    "Cascade, give me the current Trinity TCI composite." The get_trinity_composite tool is called (formula never disclosed for compliance reasons).

Notes

  • Windsurf and Cursor share the Codeium ecosystem — the MCP configuration is portable between the two.
  • Optimal performance is reached by enabling the MCP cache in Windsurf Settings.
