Automate campaign analysis in Windsurf

Cascade doesn't just look at data; it acts. You give a goal, and it chains `list_campaigns` with `get_campaign_report` to identify which initiatives are burning cash without conversions. It digs into the numbers while you focus on strategy. You get a clear picture of what works without jumping between browser tabs.

Deep dive into Google Ads keyword metrics

When you need to know why a specific ad group is lagging, Cascade runs `get_keyword_performance` and `search_keywords` in sequence. It isolates the underperforming terms that kill your quality score. This MCP Server provides the raw data Cascade needs to suggest bid adjustments. You see the logic behind every proposed change before you hit approve.

Track budget health with Cascade

Stop worrying about hitting spend caps unexpectedly. Cascade uses `list_budgets` and `get_account_summary` to keep a constant watch on your daily limits. It alerts you if your spend velocity is off-track. You stay in control of the account without manual monitoring of the dashboard.
