FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does this work with self-hosted Metabase instances?

Yes. You just need to provide your full Metabase Base URL (e.g., http://metabase.your-domain.com). Your agent will connect securely to your private instance using your API Key.

Can I see the SQL code behind a specific Metabase card through my agent?

Yes. Use the get_card tool with a specific Card ID. Your agent will retrieve the complete mapping logic, exposing the underlying SQL query (if it's a SQL question) or the structural query parameters used to generate the visualization.

Can my agent list all databases currently connected to Metabase?

Absolutely. Use the list_databases tool to identify all physical data warehouse integrations. Your agent will report the database names, types (e.g., PostgreSQL, Snowflake), and internal IDs available for querying.

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.
