Speed up dispatch planning in Windsurf
The `list_drivers` tool pulls your current active fleet roster directly into your workspace. Cascade uses this list to match available drivers with active loads from `list_orders` without you needing to copy-paste data between screens. By combining these calls, your Cascade agent identifies driver availability, checks historical routes via `list_dispatches`, and prepares assignments. You get a clear picture of who is ready for the next haul in seconds.
Track complex movements with this MCP Server
This MCP Server exposes `list_movements` to let your agent inspect current active truckload routes. Cascade chains this with `list_stops` to map out every single drop-off point for a specific trailer. Instead of clicking through a slow web UI, you ask Cascade to map the route. It reads the stop sequences, checks customer details using `list_customers`, and flags potential delays before they hit your drivers.
Search McLeod order data using Cascade
Finding specific load details happens instantly when you run `search_orders` inside Windsurf using this MCP Server. Cascade scans your system, locates the exact order record, and pulls the full details via `get_order`. If you need to assign an outside fleet, Cascade queries `list_carriers` to find approved partners. You get the rate, contact info, and status without leaving your active coding session.
