Frequently asked questions
Can I search for movies on TMDB before adding them to my library?
Yes! Use the lookup_movie tool with a search term. The agent will return potential matches from TMDB, which you can then add using add_movie.
How do I check if I have enough disk space for new downloads?
Simply ask the agent to run the get_disk_space tool. It will provide a list of all connected drives and their available capacity.
Is it possible to remove a movie and its files from the disk simultaneously?
Yes. When using the delete_movie tool, you can set the deleteFiles parameter to true to ensure the media is wiped from your storage.
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.
