Autopilot Sprint Planning in Windsurf

The `create_sprint` tool lets Cascade spin up your next iteration directly from your workspace context. Cascade reads your local roadmap, maps out the timeline, and runs the API call to build the sprint structure in GitScrum instantly. Once the shell is ready, Cascade chains `create_user_story` to populate your backlog based on your current code comments. You don't have to copy-paste requirements or manually type out descriptions in a browser.

Live Burndown Audits with Cascade

The `sprint_reports` tool brings live burndown and burnup metrics straight to your Windsurf workspace. Cascade pulls this raw data to spot lagging tasks before they derail your release target. If a team member falls behind, Cascade uses `list_tasks` to filter by status and pinpoint the exact bottleneck. You get a clear picture of who is stuck without sitting through another useless standup meeting.

Zero-friction KPI Tracking via MCP Server

The `sprint_kpis` tool exposes critical team velocity metrics directly to your Windsurf editor. Cascade automatically queries this endpoint at the end of every cycle to evaluate how many story points your team actually cleared. By combining `sprint_stats` and `sprint_progress`, the editor calculates your true sprint capacity for the next cycle. You get realistic planning numbers based on hard API data, not wild guesses.
