Connect Mode (Collaborative Data Platform) MCP to Windsurf

Automate report discovery in Windsurf
Cascade reads your workspace context to find specific analytics. It uses `list_reports` and `search_reports` to pull current metadata without leaving your editor. Stop digging through browser tabs for query definitions. Let your agent find the exact report token via `get_report` and pull the data right into your active file.
Map your entire Mode (Collaborative Data Platform) inventory
Windsurf handles the heavy lifting of auditing your data footprint. Use `list_spaces` to see how your team organizes datasets across different project folders. Once you find a space, `get_space` provides the specific parameters you need. It's the fastest way to understand your current data architecture.
Audit data connections on the fly
Managing warehouse access is a headache, but this MCP server makes it transparent. Run `list_data_sources` to see exactly which databases are hooked into your environment. Need to know who has access? Use `list_members` to verify user permissions. It keeps your workspace clean and your security team happy.
