Frequently asked questions
Can my AI list volunteers and their hours?
Yes. list_volunteers returns the full directory, and get_volunteer_hours shows logged hours for any specific volunteer.
How do I see event registrations?
Use list_registrations with the event ID. The agent returns all registered volunteers with their status.
Can I browse available volunteer opportunities?
Yes. list_opportunities shows all open positions that volunteers can sign up for.
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.
