Frequently asked questions
How do I get started?
Subscribe to the server and you're ready. The UK Environment Agency API is entirely public open data. No code, no setup, no webhooks — just connect and start querying through your AI agent.
Can my AI agent check for active flood warnings in specific areas?
Yes. Your agent queries the live flood alert endpoints, giving you precise warnings, severity levels, and regional bounds instantaneously. It handles the whole diagnostic flow directly from your prompt.
What happens when I need to check exact river depth history?
Just tell your AI agent. It targets individual measurement stations and reads their active water flow and level records, saving you from navigating complex CSV government databases.
Can I monitor multiple geographic metrics simultaneously?
Absolutely. Combine requests for hydrology network grids, list all active flood stations across county borders, and map their measures. Perfect for logistics teams, civic planners, and researchers parsing country-wide status loops.
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.
