Auto-Discover Contacts and Video Status

Cascade uses `list_contacts` to pull a full roster of recipients. Then, it can check the health of your connection by running `check_zipper_status`. This lets you quickly figure out who's active before building a campaign. It also gives you deep insight into communication flow using `get_contact_views`, showing exactly how many times each contact viewed specific videos. No manual steps needed—just set the goal.

Search and Analyze Video Content

Need to find a video from months ago? Use `search_videos` to filter all your content by keyword. After you locate it, Cascade can pull specific details using `get_video`, which gives you the full context of that communication. For deeper dives, run `get_video_analytics`. This tool pulls metrics on a video's performance so you know exactly what worked and why.

Manage Recordings and Communications

This MCP Server manages all your communication history. You can get a list of every screen recording via `list_recordings` or see all previous video emails using `list_videos`. These tools keep track of everything that goes out. Want to check the most recent content? Run `get_recent_videos` to pull the 10 latest videos instantly. It keeps your agent informed on current activity without having to manually request lists.
