Automate Referral Code Audits in Windsurf

This Friendbuy MCP Server lets Windsurf check referral codes and rewards automatically. Cascade uses `get_referral_code_status` to verify if a code is still active before running any marketing scripts. Instead of manual lookups, you tell Cascade to find inactive codes and it loops through `list_referral_rewards` to flag issues. It handles the whole chain of checks in one go.

Track Conversions and Purchases Autonomously

This Friendbuy tracking toolset allows Windsurf to log user actions autonomously. Cascade hooks into your active workspace to log user actions, firing `track_conversion_signup` the moment a user registers. When a sale closes, Cascade calls `track_conversion_purchase` to register the purchase and update your referral metrics. You set the trigger, and Windsurf executes the entire tracking sequence behind the scenes.

Audit Live Webhook Configurations

This Friendbuy MCP Server gives Cascade the ability to monitor your active webhooks. It runs `list_webhooks` to inspect your current endpoints and ensure your referral triggers are active. If a webhook goes down, Cascade catches the error, runs `check_api_connection` to isolate the issue, and alerts you. It keeps your data flowing without requiring manual terminal commands.
