Chart real-time inflation trends with Windsurf Cascade

The `get_cpi_inflation` tool pulls the latest Consumer Price Index metrics directly into your workspace. Cascade takes this raw index data, calculates month-over-month shifts, and updates your local project charts without you writing a line of boilerplate. You give Cascade a prompt to analyze inflation impact on pricing models. It calls the tool, runs the math, and writes the updated estimates straight to your config files.

Automate labor market analysis in this MCP Server

The `get_unemployment_rate` tool fetches the official national unemployment figures directly from the Current Population Survey. Cascade uses this endpoint to monitor job market tightness and adjust your economic forecasting algorithms on the fly. Instead of manually downloading CSVs, you let your agent run this tool alongside `get_jolts_data` to map hiring trends against total job openings. Cascade parses both datasets, correlates the hiring ratios, and generates a clean markdown report in your project directory.

Query raw series codes directly

The `query_bls` tool lets you bypass pre-built endpoints to query up to 50 specific BLS timeseries codes at once. Cascade matches these numeric codes with your internal schema to keep your database synchronized with official federal records. You provide the target series IDs, and Cascade handles the payload batching. It executes the queries, formats the nested JSON response, and populates your local SQLite cache in a single execution loop.
