Automate your store pipeline in Windsurf

Cascade reads your requirements and chains tool calls to push updates. You can trigger `list_submissions` to check status and then move to `get_submission` for deep diagnostics. Stop clicking through the web portal. Windsurf handles the sequence so you can focus on the code while the server handles the API handshake.

Manage app inventory directly

Run `list_applications` to pull your full portfolio into your context window. Once you select a target, use `get_application` to pull the metadata you need for your current task. This MCP Server keeps your state synced. Cascade knows exactly which app you are working on, making it simple to reference specific IDs in your build scripts.

Track flight and add-on updates

Query `list_flights` and `list_addons` to see what is currently live versus what is in testing. Use `get_flight` or `get_addon` when you need to inspect individual configurations. Getting a clear view of your store assets takes one prompt. Windsurf pulls the raw data through the MCP Server and presents it exactly where you need it.
