Perplexity

Cascade automates your trivia research

Windsurf allows your agent to pull specific data points without leaving your editor. When you need context for a project, `get_trivia_fact` gives your agent the exact numbers it needs. Cascade chains these requests automatically. It figures out the sequence, runs the tool, and drops the relevant data into your active file.

Math facts for your logic flow

Stop guessing properties of numbers during your development process. Using `get_math_fact` lets you inject verified mathematical context directly into your code comments or logic. Windsurf treats this as a first-class function. It executes the tool call, reads the response, and keeps your coding session focused on the task at hand.

Historical data for your UI

Populate your applications with dates and years using `get_date_fact` and `get_year_fact`. Your agent fetches these details, formats them, and inserts the content where it belongs. This MCP Server removes the need for manual lookups. It turns raw information into structured text that your agent can use immediately.
