Connect AcademyOcean MCP to Windsurf

Auto-provision learners via Windsurf
Cascade handles the onboarding grunt work. When a new hire drops into your Slack channel, you just tell your IDE to get them set up in the LMS. The agent figures out the steps, grabbing the email and hitting the endpoint. It triggers `invite_learner` without waiting for you to click approve. You get a confirmation right in your editor while you keep writing code. The whole process takes seconds.
Audit training completion rates
Finding out who actually finished their compliance modules usually means logging into a clunky dashboard. Now you just ask your agent to run an audit. This MCP Server pulls the data straight into your workspace. The system calls `list_learners` to grab the roster, then loops through `get_learner_progress` for each person. You get a clean text summary of who is falling behind, ready to paste into an email.
Map internal docs to active courses
Keeping engineering documentation synced with HR training materials is a massive headache. You can point your agent at a markdown file and ask if the onboarding curriculum covers the same topics. It fires off `list_courses` to pull the active syllabus. Then it compares those titles against your local files, pointing out exactly where your internal wiki overlaps with the official AcademyOcean modules.
