Using the MCP
- Open Windsurf
- Run the MCP by going to
windsurf > settings > windsurf settings > cascade > Model Context Protocol (MCP) Servers
and enable the MCP there. - If you are using Moose tools, you will need to run your moose dev server with
moose dev
.
Warnings / Peculiarities
- Every time you add an MCP or change its configuration, you will need to reload the MCP. You can do this by going to
windsurf > settings > windsurf settings > cascade > Model Context Protocol (MCP) Servers
and toggling the MCP off and on or refreshing the server. If this doesn’t work, you can also restart the Windsurf application. - If you have configured the MCP globally, and want to change the Moose Project that the Sloan MCP is referring to, manually edit the MCP.JSON file or run
sloan config focus
and select a new project.
Common issues / troubleshooting
- The MCP is running, but you aren’t able to get your data? Look at the tool call response, it will tell you if your Moose dev server is running. If it is not, run
moose dev
in your Moose project directory. - The MCP is not running. Check your configuration and then restart the application.
