Key Capabilities
Automate Client Directory Sync
Setting a goal to 'Sync all active clients' triggers `list_crm_organizations`. The agent then figures out the next step: pulling contacts using `list_crm_persons` for each organization. It writes code that handles the data structure changes and updates internal records. This entire sequence runs without you telling it what to do next, making sure your local system stays synchronized with Simplicate's master client list.
Process Full Project Lifecycle Audits
You can tell Windsurf: 'Check all projects for billing gaps.' It starts by calling `list_projects`, then iteratively calls `get_project_details` on each one. If a project is nearing completion, it automatically queues up the necessary steps to check associated invoices via `list_invoices`. This autonomous process builds a report showing which projects need manual attention and why.
Log Time and Validate Billing Triggers
A common workflow is logging time. You set the goal: 'Record hours for John Doe.' The agent uses `log_time_registration` with the correct parameters. It then follows up by listing all project services using `list_project_services` to ensure the logged time maps correctly to billable items. It doesn't stop there; it can even check if any invoices are pending based on that recorded time.
