Autonomous template management in Windsurf

Cascade reads your template list using `list_documint_templates` and identifies exact field requirements with `get_template_variable_audit`. It stops guessing which keys you need for your PDFs. Once it finds the right file, it pulls the schema via `get_template_configuration` to ensure your data payload matches. You just tell it the goal and it handles the rest.

Generate and track documents with Windsurf

Trigger `create_new_generation` to build PDFs on the fly while you stay in your code. The agent chains this with `get_generation_details` to verify the output without switching tabs. If something goes sideways, the agent uses `list_failed_doc_generations` to debug the payload. It fixes the mapping and tries again while you watch the diff.

Monitor account limits inside Windsurf

Keep an eye on your usage without leaving your editor. Cascade calls `get_documint_account_metadata` to check your current standing against your plan limits. It flags potential issues before your billing cycle hits a wall. This keeps your production pipeline moving without manual oversight.
