Web Search
Cascade has access to a tool that can search the internet and parse the resulting web pages. You can also use the @ symbol with a specific URL if you want to pull in the latest API docs for an enterprise platform or the changelog of your favorite open source project. Cascade will ground its work in the most up-to-date information by parsing and reasoning over the web page identified by the search or specified by the @url.
Automated Memories
In Wave 1, we added explicit Memories via global rules and repository-specific windsurfrules.
With automated Memories, Cascade will automatically figure out patterns in how you want work to be done, and save them to a bank of Memories that you can later inspect and edit.
Streamlining execution
Cascade runs terminal commands utilizing the underlying IDE terminal shell so commands like venv now work as expected. We have also made many improvements to the devcontainer extension.
Problems Tab
integrated Cascade with the Problems Tab so that you can get Cascade to have the context of (and solve) your issues without a single copy-paste.
