Windsurf MCP Server for WhatsApp Automation
Cascade doesn't just send a text and stop. You can tell your agent to run a full outreach campaign right from the editor. It starts by pulling your approved formats using `list_templates`. Once it finds the right one, the agent fires off the broadcast using `send_template`. If something fails, Cascade automatically runs `get_status` to figure out if your channel disconnected before bothering you with an error.
Media and document delivery
Sending raw text isn't always enough. Sometimes you need to push a PDF invoice or a quick video demo to a customer's phone while you write the backend logic for it. You just drop the file path into your prompt. Cascade grabs the asset and uses `send_file` to push it through the WhatsApp API, complete with whatever caption you specified. This MCP integration keeps you focused on coding instead of switching tabs.
Chat history auditing
Debugging conversational bots requires actual context. You don't want to leave your workspace to read what a user just texted your test number. Have your editor pull the recent thread. It runs `list_messages` to grab the incoming and outgoing history, dumping the raw JSON right into your terminal so you can write better parsing logic.
