Frequently asked questions
Can I enrich a profile using only a LinkedIn URL?
Yes! Use the pdl_enrich_person tool and provide the LinkedIn URL in the profile parameter. The agent will return the full professional profile associated with that URL.
Is it possible to search for companies by industry and size using SQL?
Absolutely. Use the pdl_search_company tool and provide a SQL query like SELECT * FROM company WHERE industry='software' AND employee_count > 500. This gives you direct access to the full dataset.
How many records can I enrich at once in bulk?
You can enrich up to 100 records per request using the pdl_bulk_enrich_person or pdl_bulk_enrich_company tools by passing a JSON array of request objects.
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.
