Add the Mixpanel MCP server to Windsurf

Config last verified Jun 1, 2026

The exact config to run Mixpanel in Windsurf — paste it in, restart, and the tools load.

Prerequisites

  • Windsurf installed.

Setup

1. Open ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

On Windows the file lives at %USERPROFILE%\.codeium\windsurf\mcp_config.json.

2. Add this configuration

Add to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json
json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mixpanel": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.mixpanel.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Heads up

  • Windsurf uses `serverUrl` for remote servers.

3. Restart Windsurf and confirm the Mixpanel tools load.

Gotchas

  • Windsurf uses `serverUrl` for remote servers.

Windsurf's Cascade reads MCP servers from an "mcpServers" object in ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json. Unlike most clients, remote servers are configured with the "serverUrl" field rather than "url", so a config that uses "url" silently fails to connect. Native remote transport is supported without an OAuth flow.
