Manage Assistants via the MCP Server

You can check which helpers are active using `list_assistants`. Need details on a specific agent? Just call `get_assistant` to pull all their assigned parameters and capabilities. It's also simple to find out what tasks are waiting for work by calling `list_tasks`, giving your Cascade agent the full picture of ongoing projects.

Create and Update Workflows with Wing Assistant

When you set a goal, the system needs to know where to start. Use `create_task` by passing it a title and description, kicking off an entire automated sequence for Windsurf. If that initial plan changes, no sweat. You can adjust what's already running or create something new with `update_task`, keeping your multi-step goal aligned.

Monitor Task Progress with the MCP Server

Watching a long process run is annoying, but you gotta know if it stalled. Use `get_task_status` to pull the current status of any unit of work. This helps your agent decide whether to wait or intervene. If you need an overview of everything assigned, `list_tasks` provides a full manifest of every job currently in the queue.
