Automated Time Tracking for Windsurf

You just tell Cascade what you need, and it figures out the steps. For example, to see how much time was spent on a specific client's tasks, Cascade can run `list_projects`, find the right project ID, then use that data with `list_time_entries`. It handles the whole sequence without asking for confirmation. This MCP Server gives you full control over tracking. Need to correct an entry or see who worked on what? Use `add_time_entry` manually, or check out existing logs using `list_time_entries`. The autonomous nature of Windsurf makes this seamless.

Project and Client Management via MCP Server

Setting up a new client project is easy. Just call `create_project` with the necessary details, or if you're building out your initial list, run `list_customers`. You can also see all active work areas using `list_projects`, giving you an immediate overview of everything running. Windsurf lets you manage complex teams too. You can check who is on staff using `list_workspace_users` or grab context about the person logged in with `get_user_profile`. This MCP Server keeps your project scope tight.

Task Lifecycle Management

Tasks often change, and that's fine. When a project needs an update, you can modify it using `update_task`. If you need to add something new, start by creating the task with `create_task`, or check what’s already pending with `list_tasks`. This MCP Server keeps your work structured. Remember that tasks tie into projects and clients. You're always connected to a complete view of where the effort is going.
