Agent setup

Connect Windsurf

About 2 minutes. You need a Sharedrop account.

Install the CLI

In a terminal (Windsurf's own terminal works), run:

npm install -g @sharedrop/cli

This needs Node.js 20.10 or later.

Sign in

sharedrop login

A browser window opens once. Approve the sign-in, then check it with sharedrop whoami. It shows your Sharedrop username.

Add the skill

npx skills add ShareDropCloud/skills --skill sharedrop -g

The skill teaches Windsurf when and how to use the CLI.

Try it

Ask Windsurf:

Make a one-page summary of this conversation and share it with ShareDrop.

Check it worked

Windsurf replies with a sharedrop.cloud link that opens your new page, private to you until you share it.

If it doesn't work

  • The terminal says command not found: close and reopen the terminal. If it still fails, run node --version and update Node.js if it is older than 20.10.
  • sharedrop whoami does not show your username: run sharedrop login again.
  • Windsurf answers without a link: start a new session so it picks up the skill, or say "use the sharedrop CLI" in your request.

Other way: add Sharedrop as a connector

Use this only if you can't install the CLI. The connector signs you in through the browser, so you don't need an API key.

  1. Add this to ~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json (on Windows, %APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json):

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "sharedrop": {
          "serverUrl": "https://sharedrop.cloud/api/mcp"
        }
      }
    }

    Windsurf is now called Devin Desktop, and this is the path its docs give. Older Windsurf installs used ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json. If yours differs, check the Devin Desktop MCP docs.

  2. When Windsurf asks, sign in to Sharedrop in the browser.

See Connector (MCP) for more, or the CLI Guide for every command.
