# 🔧 Connecting Your AI to Taskr

## 2.3 Setting Up Windsurf

Windsurf is the new kid on the block but works great with Taskr:

### Step 1: Install Windsurf

1. Visit [windsurf.com/editor](https://windsurf.com/editor)
2. Download and install Windsurf
3. Open it up

### Step 2: Open MCP Settings

1. Open Windsurf Settings (`Cmd + ,` on Mac, `Ctrl + ,` on Windows)
2. Click **"Open MCP Marketplace"**
3. Click the **Settings gear icon** (top right) to open `mcp_config.json`

### Step 3: Add Taskr MCP Server

1. Add the configuration below to your `mcpServers` section, then save:

```json
{
  "taskr": {
    "serverUrl": "https://www.taskr.one/api/mcp"
  }
}
```

### Step 4: Sign In

The first time Windsurf connects to Taskr, **a browser window opens asking you to sign in and approve**. Sign in with your Taskr account and approve—your sign-in is remembered for next time.

### Step 5: Verify Connection

1. In the Cascade panel, click the **three-dot menu** (⋯) in the top right
2. Look for **Taskr** in your list of MCP servers
3. You should see it listed with available tools
