Let Windsurf Chain Your Cvent Event Audits
By calling `list_active_events` and `get_event_details`, your Windsurf client lets Cascade autonomously chain live event audits. Cascade grabs active Cvent IDs first, then automatically pulls capacity data for each event to flag sold-out sessions before you can even ask. Cascade does not stop to ask for permission as it runs through your Cvent scheduling steps. It runs the entire Cvent audit sequence in one go, cross-referencing registration limits with venue capacities to keep your planning teams on track.
Map Venues and Speakers Automatically
With `list_available_venues` and `list_event_speakers`, your Windsurf agent gets direct access to Cvent logistic data. When you ask Cascade to draft a speaker prep email, it pulls the venue address and speaker bios in a single, autonomous pass. No more copy-pasting room names from Cvent into your Windsurf workspace. The Cascade agent handles the lookup chain, matches the speaker to their room, and leaves a complete draft ready in your active project.
Monitor Attendee Lists and Reg Types
Using `list_event_attendees` and `list_registration_types` allows your Windsurf workspace to parse Cvent participant data. Cascade chains these tools to instantly filter VIP ticket holders against actual attendee check-ins. This setup bypasses the slow Cvent web portal entirely. Your Windsurf agent does the heavy lifting, analyzing registration categories and sorting the attendee rosters directly in your active project.
