Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically find the tracking status of a specific package just by providing the tracking number?
Yes! Use the get_live_tracking tool with the tracking number. Your agent will respond with the real-time status, carrier info, and current location in seconds.
How do I search for a specific carrier code (e.g. FedEx or DHL)?
Simply ask the agent to run the search_couriers action with the name of the carrier. It will retrieve the correct identifier for that provider.
How do I find my Ship24 API Key?
Log in to your Ship24 account, navigate to the Dashboard, and select API to copy your unique secret API key.
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.
