Manage jobsite documentation in Windsurf

Cascade can now pull your live project data from CompanyCam without you leaving the IDE. Just tell the agent to find a specific job, and it uses `list_projects` or `search_projects` to grab the details. Once the context is loaded, Cascade can inspect specific files using `list_project_documents`. It handles the messy API calls so you can focus on building the features that matter.

Automate photo retrieval for your codebase

If you need a reference image for a UI component, ask Cascade to find it. It runs `list_project_photos` to gather the assets you need for your current task. It doesn't stop at listing files. Cascade uses `get_photo_details` to verify the metadata, ensuring you have the right link to render the image in your app.

Direct project creation from the editor

You don't need a browser to keep your records updated. Use `create_project` to spin up new work orders directly from your terminal or chat window. Cascade manages the handshake with the server. It keeps your development flow moving by handling the administrative heavy lifting in the background.
