How to Use the Dyte MCP in Windsurf

Q: Can Windsurf automate the participant onboarding process using Dyte?

Yes, you can instruct Cascade to call addparticipant as part of a multi-step script. It handles the injection of user details into the meeting object automatically.

Q: Is it possible to manage Dyte recordings from my Windsurf terminal?

Absolutely. Use the startrecording and stoprecording tools to toggle media capture. The agent manages the state of these calls so you don't have to track them manually.

Q: Does the server handle existing meeting sessions?

You can query the current state of any session by using listmeetings or getmeeting. This allows you to verify IDs before performing further actions.

Use the Dyte MCP Server in Windsurf to automate video session lifecycles and participant management directly from your IDE.

Automate meeting creation in Windsurf

Cascade handles the entire meeting lifecycle without manual intervention. You define the meeting parameters, and the agent executes `create_meeting` to generate a session ID and token immediately. Once the meeting exists, the agent uses `add_participant` to onboard users. Cascade maps these steps into a single workflow, keeping your session logic contained within the editor.

Control live sessions with MCP Server tools

Managing high-stakes video calls requires precise control over media state. Use `start_recording` or `start_livestream` to trigger broadcasts the moment a session goes live. When the discussion wraps up, the agent calls `stop_recording` or `stop_livestream` to finalize the assets. This prevents orphaned sessions and ensures your media triggers fire exactly when needed.

Audit session data inside Windsurf

Tracking meeting health shouldn't require switching tabs. Use `list_meetings` to fetch active sessions or `get_meeting` to verify specific configurations without leaving your workspace. If you need to check attendance, the `list_participants` tool returns current user data directly to the terminal. Cascade processes this output to report on who is in the room in real-time.
