Key Features in Windsurf Wave 3
- Model Context Protocol (MCP) Support: Cascade, the core AI workflow system within Windsurf Editor, now supports Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP). MCP enables integration with external data sources via standardized MCP servers. Users can configure these servers in the Windsurf settings, allowing Cascade to access and utilize structured data sources as tools in its workflows. This feature is currently available for individual plans, with team and enterprise support forthcoming.
- Tab-to-Jump: Expanding on previous autocomplete capabilities, this feature allows users to move their cursor to suggested positions in their code using the "Tab" key. Unlimited autocomplete and Supercomplete suggestions are now available to all users, while paid users gain access to unlimited tab-to-jump suggestions and a "Fast Mode" for enhanced performance.
- Turbo Mode: Cascade can now autonomously execute terminal commands without requiring user approval, streamlining iterative processes. This feature is available to individual users.
- Drag-and-Drop Images: Users can now drag and drop images directly into the editor, simplifying workflows that involve multimodal inputs like website building or design translation.
- Custom App Icons: Paid users on macOS can customize their Windsurf application icons as a personalization option.
Additional Updates
- Model Support: New models such as DeepSeek-v3, DeepSeek-R1, o3-mini, and Gemini 2.0 Flash have been integrated, offering varying levels of performance and cost efficiency.
- Windsurf Next: A pre-release version of Windsurf is now available for early adopters who wish to test new features before they are rolled out in stable releases.
