Perplexity

Windsurf executes AdRoll reports automatically

Cascade reads your performance requirements and triggers `get_report` without you typing a single command. It parses the JSON criteria, fetches the data, and presents the raw metrics directly in your editor. You avoid the browser tab dance. Cascade handles the data retrieval so you can focus on adjusting the campaign strategy based on the numbers right in front of you.

Manage your Windsurf ad groups

Use `list_campaigns` and `list_adgroups` to see exactly what is running in your account. Cascade pulls these lists into your project context so you can cross-reference ad spend with your codebase. This MCP Server provides the hooks for Cascade to map your local files to your live marketing assets. It turns your IDE into a central dashboard for your ad operations.

Target segments using Windsurf context

Call `list_segments` to pull your current audience data into your active session. You get immediate visibility into your retargeting pools without leaving your code. Cascade uses this data to refine how you write your tracking logic. It keeps your marketing implementation synced with your live audience segments.
