Connect Windsurf · Adako docs

Steps

Open Windsurf Settings, then Cascade, then the MCP servers panel, and choose the raw configuration file.
Add the adako block below beside any servers you already have. Do not replace the file.
~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json
```
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "adako": {
      "serverUrl": "https://adako.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```
Save, then refresh the server list in the panel.
Open Cascade and ask it to use Adako.

    }
  }
}

Untested: the configuration follows Windsurf’s documented format, but Adako has not been verified in Windsurf yet. Tell support@adako.ai if a step does not match what you see.

Ask for something read-only first. This call is free and changes nothing.

first prompt

Using Adako, tell me which ad accounts are connected.

You should get back what is connected, which account is active, and two or three prompts worth trying next. If nothing is connected yet, the answer says so and links to the Connections page.

When a write comes back as a proposal

Under the inbox policy, a write returns a proposal id and a diff instead of a result. Say “approve it” in the chat, or open Approvals and put your seal on it there. Under direct, your confirmation in the chat is the approval.
