https://pearmcp.com/api/mcp - Enter your Pear API key for authentication
Cascade will detect all 34 Pear tools and make them available in your conversations.
3. Start using it
Ask Cascade to use all 34 Pear tools:
- âAm I free at 3pm today?â
- âCreate a meeting with the design team for Monday at 10amâ

What Pear unlocks inside Windsurf
- Manage calendar events, reminders, contacts, and Mail from the same Cascade conversation.
- Use free-time search, scheduling, daily briefing, and follow-up workflows alongside coding tasks.
- Keep Apple planning and communication in the same agent workflow instead of jumping between apps.
- Use one hosted MCP endpoint rather than maintaining custom Apple plumbing in your editor stack.

Windsurf's Cascade is designed for agentic workflows that go beyond just code. With Pear, Cascade can help you plan your development sprints around your actual calendar availability, set deployment reminders, or quickly find a colleague's contact info â all without leaving the flow of coding.
