How to Use the Picktime MCP in Windsurf

Q: Can Windsurf perform Picktime cancellations automatically?

Yes. If you authorize the action, Cascade uses the cancelbooking tool to handle the request. It confirms the details first, then executes the change.

Q: Does Picktime work with Windsurf for multi-location businesses?

It does. You can use listlocations to identify your branches and then manage specific schedules for each one using the relevant ID.

Q: How do I check staff availability in Windsurf using Picktime?

Call liststaff to see who is active. Then, use getavailability for the specific service to find open time windows for those team members.

Let Windsurf chain scheduling tasks directly through the Picktime MCP Server to handle bookings without manual context switching.

Full schedule visibility in Windsurf

Cascade uses `list_bookings` and `list_services` to pull your entire calendar state directly into the editor context. You get a live view of what is happening across every branch. Stop digging through browser tabs to find open slots. Your agent pulls `get_availability` data to see exactly when staff are free, allowing it to propose slots based on real-time constraints.

Autonomous booking management

Windsurf handles the entire lifecycle of a reservation by executing `cancel_booking` whenever a conflict arises. The agent processes the request and updates your status without you needing to monitor the API. Complex scheduling flows become simple sequences. Cascade uses `get_booking_details` to verify client info before it makes any changes, ensuring your records stay accurate.

Staff and location coordination

Managing multi-location businesses is straightforward when you can query `list_locations` and `get_location` configurations on the fly. You gain control over branch-specific operations from one interface. Your agent checks `list_staff` to confirm exactly who is available for a specific class or service. It cross-references this with `list_classes` to ensure your scheduling logic aligns with your actual business rules.
