Real-time market data in Windsurf
Stop switching tabs to check market swings. This MCP server feeds live pricing into your workspace so you can analyze trends while you code. Cascade uses `get_gold_price` or `get_crude_oil_price` to fetch current figures the second you ask for them.
Full commodity overview
Need a quick look at the entire board? Use this to pull aggregate data for energy, metals, or agriculture sectors instantly. Your agent runs `get_energy_commodities_prices` or `get_precious_metals_prices` to build a complete view of the market for your current analysis.
Drill down into specific futures
Focus on the assets that move your project. Whether you need the latest on coffee or copper, the data is just a prompt away. Call `get_coffee_price` or `get_copper_price` to grab exact spot numbers for your financial models.
