Automate flight tracking in Windsurf

Cascade reads your requirements and executes chains of AeroDataBox tools without manual prompts. It uses `get_fids_relative` to pull current airport data and formats the output into your active project files. When you need historical context, the agent calls `get_airport_delays_historical` and `get_flight_history` back-to-back. It handles the data parsing, leaving you with clean, ready-to-use results in your editor.

Manage alerts through your IDE

You can monitor your credit usage by having Cascade run `get_alert_balance` before launching new monitoring tasks. It keeps your operations running without you needing to switch tabs. If you need to adjust your setup, the agent uses `list_alert_subscriptions` and `delete_alert_subscription` to prune old hooks. It keeps your environment tidy while keeping your data streams active.

Analyze runway and route data

Access physical airport specs using `get_airport_runways` to inform your logistics code. Cascade pipes this data directly into your logic, ensuring your planning tools have accurate, low-latency inputs. It also runs `get_airport_routes_stats` to build statistical models for transit volume. This MCP Server gives your agent the raw numbers it needs to make smart, data-backed decisions.
