Auto-chain Madrid transit routes in Windsurf
The `plan_bus_route` tool plots physical transit paths through Madrid without making you prompt every single step. Cascade handles the heavy lifting, taking your destination coordinates and determining the best route options directly in your workspace. Once Cascade fetches the route, it automatically triggers `get_bus_arrivals` to check when the next bus actually shows up at your starting stop. You do not have to copy-paste stop IDs because the agent passes the data between tools on its own.
Live BiciMAD bike monitoring via Windsurf MCP Server
The `list_bicimad_stations` tool retrieves the live status of every electric bike station in Madrid's municipal network. Windsurf monitors dock availability and empty slots, allowing your agent to plan mixed-mode commutes on the fly. If a station runs dry, Cascade automatically falls back to bus alternatives using this MCP Server. It chains the bike status check with route planning to keep your commute plans realistic.
Automatic authentication management
The `login` tool handles your credentials with EMT MobilityLabs to keep your API session active behind the scenes. Windsurf manages this handshake autonomously, refreshing your token before it expires so your queries never fail. You supply your credentials once, and Cascade manages the session state during long-running tasks. This setup keeps your focus on building transit features with your favorite MCP client rather than debugging expired Madrid API tokens.
