Windsurf handles your project feedback

Cascade can pull your entire list of active issues using `list_tasks` without leaving the editor. It scans the current state of your backlog so you don't have to switch tabs to see what's broken. Once the agent identifies a priority item, it uses `get_task` to dig into the details. This keeps your coding flow moving because the data is already in the context window.

Create BugHerd tasks from your editor

Stop copying notes into a browser window. Use `create_task` to push bug reports directly from your code comments or terminal output into the right project. Windsurf chains these calls to ensure your issue tracking stays synced with your actual work. It captures the context of your current file and sends it straight to the tracker.

Manage organization data in Windsurf

Run `get_organization_info` to verify you are working in the correct workspace. This MCP Server ensures your agent has the right environment settings before it starts touching your tickets. It also lets you audit your team with `list_users`. You'll know exactly who is assigned to each task without hunting through web dashboards.
