How to Use the Ebby MCP in Windsurf

Q: Does Ebby work with Windsurf for batch processing?

It does. You can tell Cascade to list all your files with listaudiotranscriptions and then fetch the text for every completed one in a single pass.

Q: Why is my Windsurf context empty after calling Ebby?

Check if the transcription is finished by running listinprogresstranscriptions first. If it's still processing, the text won't be available yet.

Let Windsurf chain Ebby tools to process your audio files and pull transcriptions directly into your codebase.

Full transcription lifecycle management

Cascade doesn't just look at your files; it manages the entire transcription flow. You can ask it to check your status with `list_in_progress_transcriptions` while it preps your environment for the incoming text. Once the audio is ready, it uses `list_successfully_processed_audio` to find the right ID. It handles the heavy lifting so you stay in the flow.

Search and extract content with Windsurf

Stop digging through your dashboard for files. Use `search_transcriptions_by_name` to find exactly what you need based on keywords or filenames. After you locate the file, trigger `get_transcription_text` to pull the raw output. Windsurf drops the content right into your active editor tab for immediate review.

Audit your account usage

Keep tabs on your limits without leaving the IDE. The `quick_transcription_volume_audit` tool gives you a summary of your current processing rates. If you hit a wall, run `get_ebby_account_metadata` to see your usage caps. It keeps your development cycle moving without unexpected API errors.
