Perplexity

Automate billing with this Windsurf MCP Server

Cascade takes over routine revenue tasks without asking you to approve every step. Tell your agent to build a new pricing tier, and it reads your codebase, figures out what API calls need to happen, and executes them. Tools like `create_subscription` and `cancel_subscription` run in sequence automatically. You set the goal of downgrading a user, and Cascade handles the lookup, the cancellation, and the UI state updates in one motion.

Pull live subscriber data into context

Stop switching tabs to look up account details while debugging payment webhooks. Windsurf pulls real-time user profiles directly into your workspace using the `get_customer` tool. If a user reports a failed charge, Cascade runs `list_invoices` to find the exact billing error. It then drafts the fix in your backend code and shows you the result.

Map plans and addons directly to code

Hardcoding plan IDs breaks things when pricing changes. Cascade queries your live catalog using `list_plans` and `list_addons` to map the exact identifiers into your application logic. This means your checkout components always reference valid products. You ask Windsurf to implement a new upsell modal, and it grabs the real addon data from Chargebee to populate the frontend.
