Connect Windsurf
to DataPalace.
Windsurf is an AI-first editor by Codeium. Its agent understands a whole task and takes a series of actions to complete it.
What connecting does
Connected to DataPalace, Windsurf gets your architecture decisions, project context, and coding standards before it writes or suggests anything — in the same place the code gets built.
What plan you need
Free works for basic use. Pro (~$15/mo) is recommended for teams and heavier usage.
Connect it — settings panel
- Open Windsurf and go to Settings (⌘ + comma on Mac).
- Find the MCP Servers section.
- Click Add Server (or the plus icon).
- Name it DataPalace, set the URL to the MCP server URL, choose Bearer token auth, paste your DataPalace API token, save and restart.
Or via config — edit ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"datapalace": {
"serverUrl": "https://mcp.datapalace.ai/mcp",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_DATAPALACE_TOKEN" }
}
}
}Test it: in Windsurf’s AI chat, “Check DataPalace for any architecture decisions related to this project.”
Good to know
Windsurf’s “Cascade” AI takes long autonomous runs, so it pulls DataPalace context at the start of a task and uses it throughout without re-asking you. Multiple MCP servers run at once.
