Can I add a new datapoint to a goal from the agent?

Yes! Use the `add_datapoint` action with the goal slug and the value. You can also add an optional comment. Your agent will log it to Beeminder instantly.

How do I check if I'm in danger of derailing on a goal?

Simply ask the agent to `get_goal_status` with the Goal Slug. It will return the road status color (e.g., green, yellow, orange, red) and a summary of how much time or value remains.

Does the integration allow me to create new goals?

Currently, the toolset focuses on managing existing goals (logging data, checking status). Creating new goals with complex 'Yellow Brick Road' configurations must be done on the Beeminder website.

Beeminder + Windsurf FAQ

Common questions about integrating Beeminder MCP Server with Windsurf.

How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?

Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.

Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?

Yes. Cascade is an agentic system — it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.

Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?

Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
