Key Capabilities
Manage recordings from the Windsurf sidebar
Stop switching tabs to find your meeting notes. Cascade can hit `list_files` to see what you recorded today and then trigger `get_transcript` to dump the text right into your open editor window. It handles the heavy lifting of parsing your audio history. You just tell the agent to grab the latest file, and it uses `get_file_detail` to confirm it has the right one before pulling the content.
Automate your documentation workflows
Turn raw meeting audio into actual project documentation without manual work. Cascade calls `get_summary` on your latest files to draft project requirements or pull action items straight from your discussions. Once the summary is ready, the agent can use `update_file` to tag the recording or rename it. It keeps your development workspace clean while your notes stay organized.
Deep dive into meeting data
Need to find a specific technical decision from last week? The agent uses `list_folders` and `list_tags` to navigate your archives, finding exactly what you need in seconds. After locating the file, it runs `get_download_url` if you need the raw audio or `get_transcript` to verify a quote. It makes your recorded data as accessible as your codebase.
