How to Use the Avaza MCP in Windsurf

Q: How does Windsurf Cascade run Avaza tasks?

Cascade uses this MCP Server to run tools like createtask and listtasks sequentially. You give Cascade a goal, and it automatically reads your project list to update the right tickets.

Q: Can I create an Avaza timesheet from my Windsurf terminal?

Yes, Cascade can run createtimesheet directly. It reads your git commits inside Windsurf and logs those hours to your account.

Q: How do I verify my Avaza credentials using the Windsurf MCP Server?

Use the getaccountcheck tool within your Cascade chat. It verifies your API connection and confirms Windsurf can talk to your account.

Q: What happens if a project ID changes?

Cascade will run listprojects to find the updated ID. It then matches your active files to the correct workspace automatically.

Run your Avaza projects directly from Cascade inside Windsurf without leaving your code.

Auto-track billable hours in Windsurf

The `create_timesheet` tool logs your development time directly to your Avaza account without manual input. When Cascade finishes a coding task in Windsurf, it checks your active branch, calculates the minutes spent, and submits the entry. You do not have to open a browser to clock in. Cascade reads your local git history, matches the work to your active project via `list_projects`, and files the draft timesheet under your name.

Build and update project pipelines with Cascade

The `create_project` and `create_task` tools let Windsurf build out entire project structures based on your workspace files. Cascade scans your new repository, maps out the required milestones, and builds the corresponding workspace in your tracking system. If your repository structure changes, Cascade runs `update_task` to keep your project board in sync. It matches your code directories to your tracking boards without manual data entry.

Manage client deliverables inside the Windsurf MCP Server

The `list_invoices` tool gives Cascade the ability to check billing statuses before starting new coding sprints. Cascade pulls payment records directly into your IDE window, letting you verify budget limits before writing a single line of code. By combining `list_contacts` and `get_project`, Cascade displays client contact details alongside project specifications. You get a complete view of client accounts right inside your editor.
