Configuring your first MCP server Cascade MCP integration

Config file: ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json. In Windsurf: Cascade → hammer icon (Plugins) → Configure.

1. Get credentials

Create an API key and connect Gmail at inbox.dog/connect.

2. Add to mcp_config.json

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config (merge into existing mcpServers if you have other servers):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "inbox-dog": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "inbox.dog", "mcp"],
      "env": {
        "INBOX_DOG_CLIENT_ID": "your_client_id",
        "INBOX_DOG_CLIENT_SECRET": "your_client_secret"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace the env values with your credentials from inbox.dog/connect. Save, then click Refresh in Cascade.

3. Refresh MCP

In Windsurf, Cascade → Plugins → Refresh. When you use Gmail tools, you'll be prompted to connect Gmail if needed.
