How to Use the Lusha MCP in Windsurf

Q: Can Windsurf run bulk enrichment jobs using Lusha tools?

Yes, Cascade can chain bulkenrichpersons to process lists of contacts in one go. You just give Windsurf the source file, and the agent writes the enriched results back to your workspace.

Q: How does Windsurf handle my Lusha API credit limits?

Cascade uses getcreditbalance to check your remaining balance before executing large prospecting runs. This prevents your workflows from failing mid-run due to depleted credits.

Q: Can I test my credentials inside Windsurf?

Yes, you can ask Cascade to run testlushaauth to check your API key status. It returns a quick success status right inside your active chat window.

Feed verified B2B direct dials and emails directly into Windsurf's Cascade so it can build your pipeline autonomously.

Cascade Auto-Prospecting via MCP Server

`prospect_new_leads` is the starting point for Cascade to autonomously build outbound target lists without human intervention. Give Cascade a target persona, and it chains this tool with `bulk_enrich_persons` to pull verified contact details directly into your workspace. You don't have to copy-paste search results or manually trigger individual lookups in Windsurf. The agent handles the multi-step sequence, checks your API limits, and writes the clean lead data directly to your project files.

Real-Time Firmographic Context

`enrich_company_info` gives Cascade the exact firmographic data it needs to filter out bad accounts on the fly. When you feed a list of domains to Windsurf, the agent runs this tool to check company sizes, industries, and headquarters locations. This keeps your outbound campaigns targeted because the agent filters out unqualified companies before writing any code or drafts. Using this MCP Server saves your API credits by rejecting out-of-profile targets early.

Instant LinkedIn and Email Lookups

`get_person_by_linkedin` allows Windsurf to resolve specific profiles into actionable direct dials while you write outreach scripts. When you point Cascade to a LinkedIn URL, it extracts the identifier, pulls the phone numbers, and drops them into your editor. You can also use `get_person_by_email` to verify inbound signups right inside your Windsurf workspace. The agent instantly pulls the lead's current job title and company details, giving you immediate context on who just signed up.
