Perplexity

Automate your video infrastructure in Windsurf

Cascade doesn't just read documentation; it executes `create_stream` and `request_asset_upload` to build your pipeline. You define the goal and the agent handles the multi-step logic required to get your content online. It chains operations like creating a stream and setting up a `create_multistream_target` without manual intervention. You get a ready-to-broadcast setup while the agent manages the underlying API calls.

Monitor live performance directly in Windsurf

Feed real-time data back into your editor using `get_realtime_viewership`. Cascade parses these metrics to help you adjust your stream configuration on the fly. Stop switching tabs to check your backend logs. The MCP Server brings the status of your assets and broadcast sessions right into your workspace for instant review.

Manage room sessions with Windsurf

Build interactive video experiences by calling `create_room` and `create_room_user`. You can define participant access and trigger `start_room_egress` to push room content to your streams. This workflow allows you to iterate on WebRTC features without leaving your code. You write the logic, the agent tests the connection, and you see the results immediately.
