Retention Target System: auto-GC low-retention memories during consolidation (VESTIGE_RETENTION_TARGET env var, default 0.8). Auto-Promote: memories accessed 3+ times in 24h get frequency-dependent potentiation. Waking SWR Tagging: promoted memories get preferential 70/30 dream replay. Improved Consolidation Scheduler: triggers on 6h staleness or 2h active use. New tools: memory_health (retention dashboard with distribution buckets, trend tracking, recommendations) and memory_graph (subgraph export with Fruchterman-Reingold force-directed layout, up to 200 nodes). Dream connections now persist to database via save_connection(), enabling memory_graph traversal. Schema Migration V8 adds waking_tag, utility_score, times_retrieved/useful columns and retention_snapshots table. 21 MCP tools. v1.9.1 fixes: ConnectionRecord export, UTF-8 safe truncation, link_type normalization, utility_score clamping, only-new-connections persistence, 70/30 split capacity fill, nonexistent center_id error handling.

# Windsurf
|
|
|
|
> Give Cascade a brain that remembers between sessions.
|
|
|
|
Windsurf has native MCP support through its Cascade AI. Add Vestige and Cascade remembers your architecture, preferences, and past decisions across every session.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
### 1. Open the config file
|
|
|
|
**Option A — Via UI:**
|
|
|
|
1. Open **Windsurf > Settings > Advanced Settings**
|
|
2. Scroll to the **"Cascade"** section
|
|
3. Click **"view the raw JSON config file"**
|
|
|
|
**Option B — Direct path:**
|
|
|
|
| Platform | Path |
|
|
|----------|------|
|
|
| macOS / Linux | `~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json` |
|
|
| Windows | `%USERPROFILE%\.codeium\windsurf\mcp_config.json` |
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# macOS / Linux
|
|
open -e ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Add Vestige
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"vestige": {
|
|
"command": "/usr/local/bin/vestige-mcp",
|
|
"args": [],
|
|
"env": {}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**With environment variable expansion** (Windsurf-specific feature):
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"vestige": {
|
|
"command": "${env:HOME}/.cargo/bin/vestige-mcp",
|
|
"args": [],
|
|
"env": {}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Windows:**
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"vestige": {
|
|
"command": "C:\\Users\\you\\.cargo\\bin\\vestige-mcp.exe",
|
|
"args": [],
|
|
"env": {}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Restart Windsurf
|
|
|
|
Restart the IDE or refresh the Cascade panel.
|
|
|
|
### 4. Verify
|
|
|
|
Open Cascade and ask:
|
|
|
|
> "What MCP tools do you have?"
|
|
|
|
You should see Vestige's tools listed.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## First Use
|
|
|
|
In Cascade:
|
|
|
|
> "Remember that this project uses Next.js 15 with the App Router and Drizzle ORM"
|
|
|
|
Start a **new Cascade session**, then:
|
|
|
|
> "What framework does this project use?"
|
|
|
|
It remembers.
|
|

|
|
## Project-Specific Memory
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"vestige": {
|
|
"command": "/usr/local/bin/vestige-mcp",
|
|
"args": ["--data-dir", "${env:HOME}/projects/my-app/.vestige"],
|
|
"env": {}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Important: Tool Limit
|
|
|
|
Windsurf has a **hard cap of 100 tools** across all MCP servers. Vestige uses 19 tools, leaving plenty of room for other servers.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
<summary>Vestige not appearing in Cascade</summary>
|
|
|
|
1. Verify the config file is valid JSON:
|
|
```bash
|
|
cat ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json | python3 -m json.tool
|
|
```
|
|
2. Ensure you're using absolute paths (or `${env:HOME}` expansion).
|
|
3. Check the Cascade panel for error messages.
|
|
4. Fully restart Windsurf.
|
|
</details>
|
|
|
|
<details>
|
|
<summary>Tool limit exceeded</summary>
|
|
|
|
If you have many MCP servers and exceed 100 total tools, Cascade will ignore excess servers. Remove unused servers or use Vestige's unified tools (each handles multiple operations).
