Meet the Cascade agent

You’ve just joined a new team working on a task checklist web app. Your teammate suggests using Windsurf’s Cascade to speed things up. Cascade is Windsurf’s built-in AI agent—it helps you write, debug, and refactor code using plain-English prompts. It can even create files or edit them directly. You can open it using Cmd + L (Mac) or Ctrl + L (Windows).

Look at the Windsurf interface shown. Which part of the screen is used to access Cascade, the AI-powered coding assistant?
