How to Use the Nifty (All-in-One Project Management) MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I connect the Nifty (All-in-One Project Management) MCP Server to Windsurf?

Open your /.codeium/windsurf/mcpconfig.json file and add the server configuration under the mcpServers key. Alternatively, use the Settings menu, navigate to Cascade, and add it via the MCP Servers UI. Once saved, Cascade auto-discovers all ten tools instantly.

Q: Can Windsurf update my project timelines automatically?

Yes, Cascade uses listmilestones to fetch current timelines and compare them against your local Git history. If it detects you finished a feature early, it suggests updates to keep your team aligned.

Q: How do I find project IDs for my Cascade prompts?

Run listprojects first. This tool returns all active projects in your workspace, allowing Cascade to extract the correct ID and pass it to tools like listtasks or listtimelogs without manual intervention.

Let Cascade run your entire Nifty workspace, managing tasks and tracking milestones autonomously inside Windsurf with this MCP Server.

Autonomous Sprint Setup with Windsurf Cascade

`create_task` initializes new items directly within your sprint boards based on the code changes Cascade just made. Your agent reads your local workspace, spots TODO comments, and builds corresponding tasks without you typing a single prompt. Cascade plans the whole chain of events. It pulls active goals using `list_milestones`, maps them to current project structures via `list_projects`, and logs the new tasks immediately.

Context-Aware Project Audits via MCP Server

This MCP Server exposes project structures so Cascade can verify your team's alignment with high-level goals. It scans your active workspace, pulls portfolio data with `list_portfolios`, and matches it against local branch names to ensure you are working on approved initiatives. If a developer falls behind, your agent checks `list_time_logs` to see where the hours went. It links those hours directly to specific tasks using `get_task_details` to give you a clear view of resource allocation.

Automated Documentation Mapping

`list_project_docs` retrieves shared docs from Nifty to feed Cascade the exact requirements for your current coding task. You don't have to copy-paste spec sheets from your browser anymore. Cascade reads the retrieved documents, compares them to your local codebase, and highlights missing features. It then uses `list_members` to assign the resulting code-review tasks to the right teammate.
