Perplexity

Windsurf agent manages your repository health

Cascade reads your current project quality metrics by calling `get_repository_quality_analysis`. It pulls the grade and specific issues directly into your chat session. This lets you address code smells before they hit main. Windsurf uses `search_repository_issues` to pinpoint exactly where you need to refactor.

Audit organization structure with Windsurf

Quickly list everyone working on your projects using `list_organization_members`. You don't need to check the web dashboard to see who owns which repo. Windsurf runs `list_codacy_organizations` to switch contexts between your personal and professional accounts. It keeps your workspace clean and focused.

Automate analysis tracking in Windsurf

Check which languages your current codebase supports with `list_supported_languages`. This prevents you from wasting time on unsupported patterns. Review your existing webhooks via `list_repository_webhooks` to ensure notifications reach your team. Windsurf handles the connection so you stay in the flow.
