Automate patient records in Windsurf

Stop jumping between tabs to manage patient identity. Use `match_patient` to verify records before you create anything, then rely on `create_patient_record` to push new entries straight into the network. Windsurf reads your current context and triggers `get_patient_demographics` automatically. It ensures you have the right ID before you ever touch a lab order, keeping your clinical data clean.

Execute lab orders with Cascade

Cascade doesn't just suggest tests; it uses `search_lab_tests` to find the exact LOINC codes needed for your orders. Once you confirm the clinical indication, it executes `submit_lab_order` to route the request to the lab. Everything stays in the loop. You can call `get_order_status` at any time to see if the lab received it or if it’s currently in testing.

Sync clinical results to your workflow

When results come back, Windsurf pulls them into your workspace using `get_lab_results`. It parses the structured data so you can review pathologist sign-offs or critical values without leaving your code. Use `list_patient_results` to track trends over time. Whether it's HbA1c or lipid panels, the agent keeps the history updated so you aren't digging through portals.
