Chain trade execution in Windsurf
Cascade doesn't just watch the ticker; it acts. You can tell it to rebalance your portfolio, and it will chain `spot_get_balance` with `spot_add_order` to get the job done immediately. Stop context-switching between your terminal and the exchange. By using this MCP Server, your agent pulls live data directly into your workspace to inform every move.
Real-time market analysis for Windsurf
Feed live orderbook data directly into your agent's reasoning process. When you use `spot_get_depth` or `futures_get_orderbook`, Windsurf analyzes the liquidity before executing a single trade. It handles the heavy lifting of parsing complex JSON responses so you can focus on the strategy. Your agent sees exactly what the exchange sees.
Automated account oversight in Windsurf
Monitor your open positions and trade history without manual checks. Cascade uses `spot_get_open_positions` and `spot_get_closed_orders` to keep your local logs synced with reality. If you need to wipe the slate clean, a single command triggers `spot_cancel_all` to kill every pending order. It's built for developers who need to move fast.
