Set up Windsurf

Add Charming as a remote MCP server in Windsurf.

Add Charming

Open the Cascade panel.
Select the MCP icon, then MCP Marketplace.
Add this remote MCP server:

{ "mcpServers": { "charming": { "url": "https://charm.ing/mcp" } } }

You can also edit the config file directly:

macOS or Linux: ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json
Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.codeium\windsurf\mcp_config.json

On the first tool call, approve the sign-in prompt.

MCP is the shortest path here. If MCP is unavailable, or you would rather not add a server, any agent that can make HTTP requests builds the same apps through Charming’s HTTP API. See Build over the HTTP API.

Paste this instead of adding the MCP server:

Connect me to Charming and help me build my first app. Use Charming's
HTTP API. Ask before starting account pairing, wait for me to approve
it, then read https://charm.ing/docs/build-http.md and ask me what I
want to build.

Your agent shows a pairing link and a short code. Open the link, enter the code if asked, and approve the connection. Both paths build the same apps in the same account, so pick one.
