Full swag inventory control in Windsurf

Cascade stays on top of your stock levels by calling `get_inventory_status` whenever you need a count. It pulls the data directly into your workspace so you stop guessing what is available. You can also use `list_products` and `get_product_variant` to check specific item specs without leaving your editor. This keeps your project context clean and focused.

Automate order tracking with Windsurf

Windsurf handles the busy work of checking shipment progress by running `list_orders` or `get_order`. It parses the status updates so you see exactly what's happening with your swag delivery. Need to cancel a mistake? Just ask Cascade to call `cancel_order` to stop the process before it ships. It takes care of the API calls while you keep coding.

Direct storefront gift card management

Create new gift cards on the fly using `create_gift_card` when you need to reward a teammate or client. Windsurf executes the command and confirms the issuance immediately. Review existing balances by triggering `list_gift_cards` to keep your records straight. The agent keeps track of these assets so you don't have to switch tabs to the store dashboard.

Yes, you can initiate orders or check status directly. The agent uses the provided tools to interact with your store data without you needing to touch a browser. It makes order management part of your dev loop.

Cascade loves this MCP Server because it allows the agent to chain multiple actions. If you tell it to check inventory and then create an order, it handles the logic autonomously. It works exactly how you would expect a CLI-connected agent to behave.

Vinkius handles the transport, but your store data lives on your own infrastructure. We never touch your private keys or order history. The connection is ephemeral and strictly scoped to your requests.

Your gift card information is encrypted in transit using standard protocols. We don't store your storefront credentials in the editor. Every request is isolated, ensuring your sensitive store data remains yours alone.
