Welcome to the Windsurf integration guide. This guide will help you connect ByteRover with Windsurf in just a few minutes, adding persistent memory to your AI-powered development workflow.

What You’ll Need

  • Windsurf installed on your computer
  • A ByteRover account (free is fine)

Getting Started

1. Start the Connection

Go to your ByteRover dashboard and:
  1. Find the “Connect your agent” section
  2. Click on Windsurf from the list of supported editors
  3. Hit the “Connect with Windsurf” button

2. Automatic Setup

Here’s what happens automatically:
  • ByteRover generates unique API credentials
  • The ByteRover integration gets configured in Windsurf
  • Connection establishes seamlessly

3. Grant Permissions

When Windsurf prompts you:
  • Allow the ByteRover integration to activate
  • Grant necessary permissions for memory operations
  • You’ll see a success message in your ByteRover dashboard

Verify the Connection

In Windsurf, you should see:
  • ByteRover integration listed as active
  • Status showing “Connected to ByteRover”
Test it with Windsurf’s AI:
Store this utility function to ByteRover:

function deepClone(obj) {
  if (obj === null || typeof obj !== 'object') {
    return obj;
  }
  
  if (obj instanceof Date) {
    return new Date(obj.getTime());
  }
  
  if (obj instanceof Array) {
    return obj.map(item => deepClone(item));
  }
  
  if (typeof obj === 'object') {
    const cloned = {};
    for (const key in obj) {
      if (obj.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
        cloned[key] = deepClone(obj[key]);
      }
    }
    return cloned;
  }
}
Windsurf will confirm when the pattern is successfully stored.
