Windsurf MCP Server thread analysis
Cascade pulls raw interaction data from your deployments. Use `get_thread` to inspect the exact node topology of any conversation. It maps out every turn so you can see exactly where your logic holds up or fails. Windsurf reads these outputs to adjust your code in real-time.
Track project metrics in Windsurf
Run `list_projects` to grab your active app spaces and `get_stats` to pull resource consumption numbers. You get the hard data without leaving your editor. Seeing these boundaries helps you understand how your users interact with the app. Cascade watches these stats to catch performance spikes before they hit production.
Review interaction steps in Windsurf
Examine the specific prompts and generations that make up a user session. You can call `list_steps` to break down every action taken within a thread. This visibility lets you debug complex chains by seeing exactly what the model generated at each point. It saves you from digging through logs manually.
