Check Definitions with the MCP Server

When you need a definition, just set your goal. Cascade reads that you need linguistic data and calls `get_word_definition`. It pulls the full meaning of any word you throw at it. No manual steps needed; Windsurf handles the context switching for you.

Summarize Topics using Wiktionary

Need a quick rundown on a topic, not just one word? Use `get_word_summary`. The agent figures out that summary data is better than definitions. It gives you a short overview of the subject matter. You get context immediately, letting you move faster in your code.

Contextual Linguistic Lookups

This MCP Server lets your agent handle multiple steps for research. Cascade sees that definitions and summaries are related tasks. It manages the flow: first calling `get_word_summary` to set the stage, then using `get_word_definition` on a key term.
