How to Use the Shipday MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I check Shipday tracking progress using Windsurf?

Just tell Cascade to track an order. It uses gettrackingprogress and feeds the result back into your conversation. You get immediate status updates without needing multiple API calls.

Q: Can Windsurf manage Shipday orders that need cancellation?

Yep. If you decide an order needs canceling, Cascade runs deleteorder. It handles the necessary cleanup steps and confirms the cancellation right away.

Q: If I list active Shipday orders with Windsurf, what tools run?

Windsurf automatically runs through listactiveorders, giving you a full manifest. It can then use the resulting order IDs to check their status via getorder.

Q: Does Shipday update tracking progress require Windsurf's help?

No, but it helps a lot. You can run gettrackingprogress directly, and if you want to chain that data with other actions—like updating the order record—Windsurf makes that multi-step process simple.

Automate Full Order Lifecycle Management.

You need to get an order moving? Start by calling `create_order` with the customer and restaurant data. Cascade then knows what's next: it automatically calls `get_order`, verifies its existence, and prepares it for assignment. It handles all the steps in sequence. You just set the goal—like 'Dispatch this order.' Windsurf figures out whether to call `assign_driver` or if we need to update its status first with `update_order_status`.

Real-time Tracking and Status Updates.

Checking on a shipment shouldn't be manual. Run the `get_tracking_progress` tool to pull live data points for any delivery. Windsurf uses this result, then checks if we need to update the record by calling `update_order_status`. This gives you a complete audit trail. This chain allows you to build complex status reports. You can list all current deliveries using `list_active_orders`, and then for each one, Windsurf runs the tracking check automatically.

Driver Assignment and Coordination.

Need a driver assigned? The process starts with `assign_driver(orderId)`. This function handles matching an order to available personnel. After assignment, you might want to pull all worker details using `list_drivers`. Windsurf can combine these actions: it checks the list of drivers, finds the best fit for a given job, and then executes the assignment in one autonomous sequence. It keeps your dispatch moving.
