One card per job: hours and materials logged against it, a status machine from open to invoiced, and the printed card for client sign-off. You open a card for the client, the site, what the job is, the currency and the scheduled date, and it returns a JC-YYYY-NNNN id. The crew logs hours each at their rate and materials as item, quantity and unit cost, each line valued and rounded half-up to the cent once at the moment it is logged and stored on the entry, so the running totals are plain sums of stored line values and can never drift from the lines. Hours are carried as integer hundredths, so 2.5 hours at 4,999 cents an hour is 12,498 cents, never 12,497.499999. The card moves exactly one step at a time, open to in_progress to done to invoiced to archived, every step dated in its history, and a skipped or backwards step is refused. job_card_print renders the card with a signature line for client sign-off, and job_card_summary answers a day or a week: cards touched, hours per worker, value per currency, never mixed. A card holding labor or materials cannot be deleted, because it is the record of work done; it is archived instead, and the JC number is never reissued.
Eleven tools against Cascade's ceiling of 100, and it pairs naturally with mcp-work-order, which prices the job up front, and mcp-invoice, which bills it at the end; budget the three at roughly 35 tools when you decide what else fits alongside them.
| You say | Tool |
|---|---|
| Open a job card for the Kowalski bathroom refit, 14 Nowa Street flat 3: replace the consumer unit and certify, EUR, scheduled 2026-03-09. | job_card_create |
| Anna logged 7.5 hours at 45.00 an hour on the 9th, first fix. | job_card_log_labor |
| Print the card for the client to sign. | job_card_print |
On the worked card, 7.5 hours at 4,500 cents an hour is 33,750 cents and one consumer unit at 18,999 is 18,999, and the grand total is their plain sum, 52,749. The smoke suite drives create, log labor, log material, the one-step status moves, print in both formats, the summary and the delete guards over real stdio, then the free cap on the eleventh active card and the same calls passing in Pro.
The file is mcp_config.json, and the key inside it is mcpServers.
| Scope | Path |
|---|---|
| macOS, Windows and Linux | ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json |
If you also run Claude Desktop, the shortest path there is one click: job-card.mcpb
from the latest release opens as an extension, with no JSON and no terminal.
Windsurf reads its own config, so here it is:
The config block:
{
"mcpServers": {
"job-card": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/absolute/path/to/mcp-servers/servers/job-card/dist/index.js"]
}
}
}The node command above wants a built file. From a clone, once:
git clone https://github.com/theluckystrike/mcp-servers.git
cd mcp-servers && npm install
npm run build -w packages/mcp-license -w servers/job-cardThat writes servers/job-card/dist/index.js, and its absolute path is the one argument
the config needs.
The npm packages are not published yet, so the form below returns a 404 today. It is here because it is what the entry becomes the day the publish lands, with nothing else changed:
{
"mcpServers": {
"job-card": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@theluckystrike/mcp-job-card"]
}
}
}Save and reopen the MCP Servers list; Cascade picks it up without restarting the editor.
Nothing is published to npm yet, so the working install paths are the ones above: the .mcpb bundle from the latest release, a clone and build, or the hosted URL.
There is no hosted endpoint for this one yet. MCP Job Card runs locally over stdio with the config above, which is also the only form in which it reads and writes files on your own disk. Thirty of the servers in this collection are served at https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/<name> over MCP streamable HTTP; https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/connect lists them and prints a ready URL for each.
Read this first: mcp_config.json applies to the legacy Cascade agent only. The Devin Local agent, the default for new tabs, takes its servers from the Devin CLI config files, so a correct entry here can still be invisible in a fresh tab. The other hard number is a cap: Cascade reaches at most 100 tools at once, and every enabled server spends from it.
Free: Ten active job cards, with labor and material entries unlimited per card and the running totals, list, get, the printable card and the daily and weekly summaries all free and unlimited on every tier. A card stops counting the moment it is archived, so the record is never metered. Pro is $19 once, verified offline.
~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, under mcpServers. Reach it from the MCPs icon at the top right of the Cascade panel, or Devin Settings, Cascade, MCP Servers.
That file applies to the legacy Cascade agent only. The Devin Local agent, the default for new tabs, reads its servers from the Devin CLI config files instead. Check which agent the tab runs.
Cascade reaches at most 100 tools at any one time, and every enabled server spends from that single budget. MCP Job Card contributes 11 tools, so keep the enabled list short rather than counting servers.
