Frequently asked questions
Can I look up a trucking company using just its legal name?
Yes! Use the get_company_snapshot tool and set the query_param to COMPANY_NAME. The agent will search the FMCSA database and return the most relevant carrier record.
What specific safety data is included in the snapshot?
The get_company_snapshot tool provides a full record including USDOT/MC numbers, operation status, inspection totals (Driver, Vehicle, Hazmat), crash summaries, and the official safety rating.
Does this tool support searching by MC or MX numbers?
Absolutely. Simply provide the MC/MX number to the get_company_snapshot tool with the query_param set to MC_MX to retrieve the carrier's electronic record.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
