Chain AdRoll metrics inside Windsurf

Cascade does not need you to fetch the account ID first. You tell it to build a weekly marketing report, and the agent calls `list_advertisables` to find your target account. Then it immediately grabs all active initiatives using `list_campaigns` without waiting for your permission. That means you can open a blank Markdown file and watch Windsurf populate it with real numbers. The agent runs `get_performance_report` for the dates you specified, formats the spend and click data, and writes the summary directly into your editor.

Audit ad creatives autonomously

Checking which banners are actually running usually means clicking through five different browser tabs. Now you just ask your Windsurf agent to audit the current assets. It fires off `list_ads` to pull down the active creatives. Because Cascade holds the context of your codebase, it can cross-reference those live AdRoll assets with your local design files. It reads the output from `get_campaign_details` and flags any mismatched promotional copy right in your terminal panel.

Build custom dashboards with this MCP Server

You want a custom React component that displays live return on ad spend. Instead of hunting down the API docs, connect the AdRoll MCP Server to Windsurf. Cascade knows the exact schema returned by the integration. The agent writes the data fetching logic, mocks the API response using actual numbers from your account, and renders the chart. You get a working internal tool in minutes because the AI client handles the data layer natively.

Yes. Cascade chains the requests for you. It finds the account ID, pulls the date range, and dumps the performance metrics straight into your workspace.
