Instant color format translation for Windsurf

Cascade uses `convert_color` to swap between HEX, RGB, HSL, and CMYK in one pass. It pulls every format at once, so you don't waste time hunting for the right string. You'll get CSS Level 4 precision every time. Cascade handles the heavy lifting while you focus on the UI layout.

Automated design token management

Feed a raw hex code into the `convert_color` tool and watch Cascade generate the full palette. It returns luminance data and alpha values without you writing a single line of conversion logic. Windsurf reads these results to update your stylesheet automatically. It keeps your design system consistent without manual trial and error.

Smart contrast detection

Ask Cascade to pick a readable text color using the `convert_color` tool's output. It detects if your background is light or dark and provides the correct CSS named color immediately. This MCP server eliminates the guessing game. You get exact values that pass accessibility checks the first time you run the code.
