From windsurf-pack
Installs Windsurf AI IDE (Codeium's VS Code fork) and configures Codeium authentication for personal, team, or enterprise use with verification steps.
npx claudepluginhub jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills --plugin windsurf-packThis skill is limited to using the following tools:
Windsurf is an AI-powered code editor by Codeium (now Cognition AI), built on VS Code. It features Cascade (agentic AI assistant), Supercomplete (intent-aware autocomplete), and deep codebase indexing. Authentication is handled through Codeium accounts, not raw API keys.
Guides migration from VS Code/Copilot or Cursor to Windsurf with config transfers via bash scripts, feature matrix, team rollout plans, and rollback strategies.
Installs and configures Windsurf IDE extensions for language support, linting, formatting, Git, and productivity. Generates team configs, settings.json, and documentation for rapid setup.
Installs Cursor IDE on macOS, Linux, Windows via downloads/brew/dpkg; configures auth, plan activation, and VS Code settings/extensions migration.

macOS:
brew install --cask windsurf
Linux (Debian/Ubuntu):
curl -fsSL https://windsurf.com/install.sh | bash
# Or download .deb from https://windsurf.com/download
Windows: Download installer from https://windsurf.com/download
On first launch, Windsurf prompts for Codeium authentication:
~/.codeium/Verify authentication:
For team deployments with centralized auth:
// Settings > Windsurf Settings (or ~/.codeium/config.json)
{
"codeium.apiServer": "https://codeium.yourcompany.com",
"codeium.portal.url": "https://portal.yourcompany.com",
"codeium.enterpriseMode": true
}
Enterprise API key (headless / CI environments):
# Set via environment variable for non-interactive use
export CODEIUM_API_KEY="your-enterprise-api-key"
1. Open any project folder in Windsurf
2. Type in a code file -- Supercomplete suggestions should appear
3. Press Cmd/Ctrl+L to open Cascade chat
4. Type "explain this project" -- Cascade should respond with codebase analysis
5. Check status bar widget shows model name (e.g., SWE-1, Claude, GPT)
Cascade supports multiple models. Configure via the model selector dropdown in the Cascade panel:
| Model | Plan Required | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| SWE-1 Lite | Free | Basic coding tasks |
| SWE-1 | Pro ($15/mo) | Complex multi-file edits |
| SWE-1.5 | Pro | Frontier-level performance |
| Claude Sonnet | Pro | Nuanced reasoning |
| GPT-4o | Pro | General-purpose coding |
| Gemini Pro | Pro | Large context tasks |
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| "Sign in required" | Auth token expired | Click Windsurf widget > Sign In |
| Cascade not responding | Not authenticated | Check status bar for auth status |
| No completions appearing | Supercomplete disabled | Click status bar widget > enable autocomplete |
| Enterprise auth fails | Wrong API server URL | Verify codeium.apiServer setting |
| "Indexing failed" | Workspace too large | Add .codeiumignore to exclude large dirs |
# Windsurf inherits VS Code extensions and settings
# Import on first launch or manually:
# Windsurf > Command Palette > "Import VS Code Settings"
# Check Windsurf CLI is available
windsurf --version
# Open project in Windsurf from terminal
windsurf /path/to/project
After authentication, proceed to windsurf-hello-world for your first Cascade interaction.
