How to Use Model Context Protocol (MCP) in Codeium

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a protocol that enables LLMs to access custom tools and services. An MCP client (Cascade, in this case) can make requests to MCP servers to access tools that they provide.

Configuration Steps

Create Configuration File
- Create a JSON file at ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json
- Quick access: Click the hammer icon in the Cascade toolbar, then click "Configure"
Configure MCP Servers
- Specify servers in the JSON configuration
- Include necessary arguments and environment variables

Example Configuration

Google Maps Server Example:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "google-maps": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-google-maps"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY": "<YOUR_API_KEY>"
      }
    }
  }
}
