Chain image tasks in Windsurf
Cascade uses `enhance_image` to perform multiple edits like HDR adjustments and background removal in one go. You give the goal, and the IDE handles the sequence without waiting for your input. This keeps your product photos consistent across your store. It cuts out the manual work of opening external editors for every single file.
Manage your Claid AI assets
Check your current usage quotas with `get_claid_account_info` directly in your workspace. You'll know exactly how many credits remain before starting a large batch job. `list_claid_collections` lets you browse existing folders without leaving your editor. It's a faster way to organize your workflow when you're deep in a project.
Monitor image processing status
Use `get_processing_task_details` to track the result of your requests. If you have async tasks running, this tool gives you the status report immediately. `list_claid_webhooks` helps you see if your notifications are set up right. You don't have to jump to a browser dashboard to verify your integration settings.
