FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is Curiosity still active on Mars?

Yes! Curiosity has been active since August 6, 2012 and continues to send new photos and science data. Opportunity operated for 15 years (2004-2018), Spirit for 6 years (2004-2010).

Can I search photos by Earth date instead of Martian sol?

Yes, the server supports querying by both Earth date (e.g., '2023-11-20') and Martian Sol (the number of Martian days since the rover landed) for flexibility.

Which cameras are available on the rovers?

Available cameras include FHAZ (Front Hazard), RHAZ (Rear Hazard), NAVCAM (Navigation), MAST (Mast Camera), CHEMCAM (Chemistry and Camera), and MAHLI (Mars Hand Lens Imager).

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.
