Using Cencori with Windsurf's Flow State and Cascade.

Windsurf (codeium.com/windsurf) (by Codeium) focuses on keeping you in the "Flow" with its deeply integrated Cascade agent.

Cascade Setup

Cascade maintains deep awareness of your codebase. To teach it Cencori:

  1. Open the Cascade chat.
  2. Type: @https://cencori.com/llm.txt
  3. Cascade will ingest the documentation context.

Flows

You can create a "Flow" for implementing AI features:

  1. Prompt: "Scaffold a Cencori-powered backend."
  2. Cascade Actions:
    • Generates lib/cencori.ts (Client initialization).
    • Creates .env file for CENCORI_API_KEY.
    • Sets up an API route for chat.

Visualizing with Windsurf

Because Windsurf understands your whole project, you can ask it:

"Check my app/api/chat/route.ts and verify if I am correctly handling the Cencori tool-calling response."

Cascade will verify your implementation against the llm.txt patterns it ingested.
