How to Use the Flightcontrol (AWS PaaS Deployments) MCP in Windsurf

Q: Can Flightcontrol (AWS PaaS Deployments) manage environment variables inside Windsurf?

Yes, Cascade calls createenvironmentvariables to write configuration keys directly to your AWS setup. You just tell the agent which key-value pairs to add, and it updates the environment without exposing raw secrets in your codebase.

Q: How does the Flightcontrol (AWS PaaS Deployments) MCP Server handle CDN caching in Windsurf?

The agent invokes createcloudfrontinvalidation to clear cached assets after a fresh frontend build. Cascade runs this tool automatically after verifying a successful deployment status, ensuring your users see the latest site changes.

Q: What happens if a blue-green deployment fails?

The agent uses swapbluegreen to manage traffic routing. If getdeploymentstatus returns an error, the agent halts the swap to keep your production environment safe from bad builds.

Perplexity

Deploy AWS infrastructure using Windsurf

The `create_deployment` tool starts a new AWS build directly from your Windsurf editor. When you tell Cascade to push a change, it automatically runs this tool, watches the state, and reports back. No more jumping to browser tabs to see if your build succeeded. Cascade chains this with `get_deployment_status` to monitor the pipeline until it finishes. If the build fails, the agent reads the logs, fixes the code, and triggers a new run immediately.

Scale services dynamically in Windsurf

The `update_service_scaling` tool changes your active container counts or CPU allocations during heavy testing. Cascade checks your active services, determines if they are running hot, and modifies the scaling configuration in real time. You can pair this with `get_service_scaling` to inspect current resource limits. The agent handles the JSON payload formatting, applying the changes to your AWS environments instantly.

Manage preview environments on the fly

The `create_environment` tool spins up isolated preview environments for your git branches. Windsurf coordinates this setup via the MCP Server by configuring variables and setting up domain routing in one go. The agent uses `edit_preview_environment` to adjust settings as your branch evolves. This keeps your testing environments in lockstep with your code changes without manual AWS console work.
