Why connect Instagram to Windsurf (Devin Desktop)?

Windsurf's agent works across your files and terminal, but on its own it can't see what your campaigns are doing. Connected through Lemonado, it reads your Instagram reels, saves, reach and follows, so it can find when your audience is most active with today's numbers.

  • All your Instagram data

    Posts and reels, ready to ask about.

  • Always today's numbers

    Profile visits and follows, synced from Instagram automatically, so answers use today's numbers.

  • Connect all your tools

    Questions like "Do organic winners work as ads?" use Instagram and Meta Ads, TikTok Ads at once.

How to connect Instagram to Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

Before you start

  • A Instagram organic account you can sign in to

    Add the server (Devin Local)

    devin mcp add -s user lemonado https://mcp.lemonado.io/mcp
devin mcp login lemonado

    Using legacy Cascade instead

    In the Cascade panel, open … → MCPs → Open MCP config file and merge this in. Save, refresh, switch the server on and sign in.

    json
    {
  "mcpServers": {
    "lemonado": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.lemonado.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

    Ask Windsurf (Devin Desktop) about Instagram

    Try "Compare last month's Instagram numbers with the targets in config/targets.json and update the file where we're consistently off." Or ask: "When should posts go out?" or "How did each post do?"

Good to know

  • Devin Local and legacy Cascade keep separate setups, so sign in to each one you use.
  • Current versions keep user MCP config in ~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json on macOS and Linux.

What can Windsurf (Devin Desktop) do with Instagram?

Windsurf's agent reads your Instagram data and works the numbers into your code, from config checks to reports saved in the repo.

Compare last month's Instagram numbers with the targets in config/targets.json and update the file where we're consistently off.

2 of 6 targets were missed three months running. I updated them in config/targets.json and left a comment with the numbers behind each change.
