Frequently asked questions
How do I check the security score of a specific vendor?
Use the get_vendor tool and provide the Vendor ID. Your agent will retrieve the complete security profile, including the overall score and metadata for that vendor.
Can I see all active risks across my entire account?
Yes! Use the list_account_risks query. This retrieves all active security risks detected across your own digital infrastructure (BreachSight).
Is it possible to monitor data breaches affecting our employees?
Absolutely. Use the list_identity_breaches query to retrieve data on identity breaches affecting your workforce, helping you take proactive security measures.
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.
