Perplexity

Autonomously manage Layup payment plans in Windsurf

Cascade uses this MCP Server to handle the entire lifecycle of your installment plans. When a shopper requests a lay-by option, your agent triggers `create_order` to initialize the plan, then tracks milestones without you typing a line of code. If a customer needs to cancel, the agent calls `get_order` to verify the state before executing `cancel_order`. You set the goal, and Cascade chains these calls behind the scenes.

Reconcile deposits without manual data entry

Tracking manual payments is tedious. Windsurf looks at your incoming ledger and uses `create_deposit` to log payments directly to the customer's plan. The agent checks status using `get_payment` and `list_payments` to ensure the ledger matches. It spots discrepancies and updates the order record instantly.

Query customer profiles directly in your workspace

When resolving checkout issues, Cascade reads your files and calls `get_customer` or `list_customers` to find matching profiles. It grabs the exact shopper details needed to fix a stuck checkout. This keeps your support desk fast. Your agent pulls history with `list_orders` to see if a customer has outstanding balances before approving new lay-by terms.
