Perplexity

Automate Project Health Checks

Tell Cascade to "check the profitability of our top 5 projects and see who's working on them." It will plan and execute the whole sequence for you. Windsurf doesn't wait for your next prompt; it just gets the job done. Cascade will first call `list_projects`, then loop through them to run `get_profitability_report`. It can even use `list_employees` to cross-reference team assignments, giving you a full picture without you lifting a finger.

Get Team Performance Insights with this MCP Server

Need to prep for a quarterly review? Give Windsurf a high-level goal like "pull all performance reviews for the design team and their recent timesheets." Cascade takes it from there. It intelligently combines `list_organizational_teams` to find the right people, fetches their data with `list_performance_evaluations`, and pulls their work hours using `list_timesheets`. You get the final report, not a list of questions.

Manage Timesheets Without the UI

Stop clicking around in a web app just to log your hours. With the AssessTEAM tools connected, you can just tell Windsurf, "log 4 hours for the 'API refactor' project." It finds the right project ID using `list_projects` and then directly calls `create_timesheet_entry` with the correct details. This is what a solid MCP connection is for.
