Automate Campaign Reporting in Windsurf

This MCP Server gives Windsurf the tools to pull campaign reports for you. Just ask it to get the latest numbers for your Q3 launch. Cascade, Windsurf's autonomous agent, can use `get_campaign_analytics` and `get_campaign_details` to get the job done in one shot. You don't even need the campaign ID. Tell Cascade to find the campaign by name, and it will use `search_active_campaigns` to locate it first. Then it automatically feeds that ID into the other tools to get the data. It plans and executes the whole sequence without you needing to prompt each step.

Manage Denim Contacts and Audiences

Adding a new lead to your marketing system is now a single instruction. Tell Windsurf to add the contact's info to Denim. It will find and use the `add_new_contact` tool to put them in your database. Before launching a new push, you can ask Windsurf to sanity-check your targeting. Cascade can use `list_audience_segments` to show you the configured groups, then cross-reference that with your full database using `list_crm_contacts`. It figures out how to combine the tools to give you the answer.

Check System Health and Assets

Get a quick snapshot of your Denim account status right from your editor. Ask Windsurf what automations are currently running, and it'll hit the `list_active_automations` tool. You can also get a quick check on your account limits with `get_account_metadata`. This is useful for pre-flight checks. Before building a new workflow, have Cascade list all available `list_email_templates` and then check active automations. You get a full picture before you act, and Windsurf does all the legwork.

Common questions about Denim MCP in Windsurf

You can add it one of two ways. The easiest is using the built-in MCP Marketplace inside Windsurf for a one-click install. You can also add the server URL manually in your `mcp_config.json` file.

Yes. Just tell Windsurf's Cascade agent the name or a keyword for the campaign you're looking for. It will use the `search_active_campaigns` tool to find the ID and can then use that ID to get more details or analytics.

Simply ask Windsurf to list all your contacts from Denim. It will use the `list_crm_contacts` tool to pull the full list directly from your account. Cascade can then use that data in follow-up steps if you have a multi-part task.

Yes, it does. Once you connect the Denim MCP Server, Cascade automatically discovers all the available tools, like `get_campaign_analytics` and `add_new_contact`. It can then chain them together to complete complex marketing tasks.

Absolutely. Your Denim contact and campaign data is only streamed to your local Windsurf client when a tool is invoked. Vinkius sandboxes every MCP Server execution in an ephemeral environment, and no data is stored or logged.
