Automate contract lifecycles in Windsurf

Cascade handles the heavy lifting by calling `ironclad_launch_workflow` to start agreements directly from your codebase. It maps your project requirements to template fields, ensuring the right contract type kicks off immediately. Once initiated, it monitors progress by chaining `ironclad_list_workflows` to keep you updated. You get the current status of your NDAs and MSAs without manual check-ins.

Pinpoint contract status with your MCP Server

Windsurf uses `ironclad_get_approvals` to identify exactly who is holding up a deal. It breaks down the pending, approved, or rejected states so you know where to follow up. If a contract stalls, call `ironclad_get_comments` to read the internal negotiation history. This gives you the context needed to resolve blockers without switching windows.

Retrieve executed records instantly

Access your entire repository by using `ironclad_search_records` or `ironclad_list_records` to find signed agreements. Your agent grabs the metadata and links to the final docs in seconds. Use `ironclad_get_record` when you need specific clauses or renewal dates. It pulls the full record details into your context window for immediate review.
