Frequently asked questions
Is a HackerTarget API Key mandatory?
No. HackerTarget allows a limited number of free daily scans without a key. For higher volume or commercial use, an API key is required.
Can I perform an aggressive Nmap scan?
The nmap_scan tool in this server performs a standard service discovery scan. Aggressive flags are limited by the upstream API provider for safety and performance reasons.
What information does the GeoIP lookup provide?
The GeoIP tool returns the country, region, city, and the Internet Service Provider (ISP) associated with the target IP address.
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.
