Chain Fantom data directly in Windsurf

Cascade can string together multiple `get_normal_transactions` and `get_contract_source_code` calls to map out complex contract interactions. It handles the sequence automatically, moving from a transaction hash to the actual code behind it in one go. You stop manually jumping between browser tabs. Windsurf gathers the data, keeps the context in the chat, and lets you write your logic based on what is happening on-chain right now.

Verify token activity with Windsurf

Keep an eye on asset movements by calling `get_erc20_transfers` or `get_erc721_transfers` directly from your workspace. The agent pulls the event logs and presents them in a format you can debug immediately. It is easier to catch anomalies when the data arrives in your IDE. You can cross-reference these transfers with `get_transaction_status` to confirm if your contract deployment actually moved the expected tokens.

Check chain state using Windsurf

Fetch real-time balances for your wallets using `get_ftm_balance` or `get_ftm_balance_multi` while coding. This gives you instant visibility into your project's funding state without needing to switch to a block explorer. Everything happens in the MCP panel. The agent handles the requests, and you get the specific numbers you need to verify your local test results against what is live on the network.
