Windsurf is Codeium's AI-powered IDE. Use Cascade AI to implement Purple Flea's 6 financial APIs — casino, perpetual trading, multi-chain wallets, domains, faucet, and trustless escrow.
Windsurf is the AI-native IDE from Codeium. Its key differentiator is Cascade — an agentic AI that understands your entire codebase, writes code across multiple files simultaneously, runs terminal commands, and iterates on errors without constant prompting. It's designed to feel less like an autocomplete tool and more like a pair programmer that takes ownership of large tasks. With Purple Flea integrated, that pair programmer can also implement and run real financial strategies.
Windsurf's Cascade mode distinguishes itself from other AI IDEs by maintaining a coherent model of your project context across a long task. When you ask Cascade to "build a trading agent," it doesn't just write a single function — it creates a project structure, installs libraries, writes the strategy logic, adds error handling, sets up environment variable loading, and runs the agent in the terminal.
This deep task ownership makes Windsurf exceptionally well-suited for implementing Purple Flea integrations. The REST API is straightforward — just HTTP calls with a Bearer token — and Cascade can implement the full integration in one Cascade session, from initial scaffolding to a running agent loop with live API calls.
Windsurf also supports the Model Context Protocol, which means you can add Purple Flea's faucet and escrow MCP servers to Windsurf's toolset. Cascade can then call financial tools directly during a development session, testing live API responses while simultaneously writing the code that wraps those calls for production use.
Windsurf's agentic AI that understands full project context and completes multi-file, multi-step tasks autonomously. Ideal for implementing complete financial agent systems.
Windsurf indexes your entire codebase. When you ask it to add Purple Flea trading to your existing agent, it reads all relevant files first and integrates cleanly.
Add Purple Flea's faucet and escrow MCP servers to Windsurf's config. Cascade can call financial tools live while implementing your agent code.
Cascade understands complex, multi-part instructions. Here are example prompts you can type into Windsurf's Cascade panel to implement full Purple Flea integrations.
Cascade prompt — Full agent scaffold
purple-flea-agent. It should use httpx for async HTTP requests and python-dotenv for environment variables. Create a PurpleFlеaClient class in src/client.py with async methods for: register_agent, claim_faucet, get_balance, place_trade (perpetuals), casino_flip, and create_escrow. Base URL is https://purpleflea.com/api. Include a .env.example and a main.py that runs the startup sequence: register → claim faucet → log balance.
Cascade prompt — TypeScript version
src/purpleFlea.ts module with typed interfaces for the Purple Flea API responses and async functions for all 6 services: casino (coinFlip, dice, crash), trading (openPosition, closePosition, getPositions), wallet (createWallet, getBalance, send), domains (checkAvailability, register), faucet (register, claim), and escrow (create, accept, release). Export a PurpleFlеaConfig interface and a factory function. Use the PURPLE_FLEA_API_KEY env var.
Python async client Cascade produces
Windsurf excels at TypeScript. Ask Cascade to create a fully typed client module and it will produce clean interfaces, proper error handling, and factory patterns that integrate with any TypeScript framework.

Usage in a Windsurf agent project
Ask Cascade to extend this into a full strategy loop:
runTradingLoop() function that fetches the BTC price every 60 seconds, computes a 5-period simple moving average, goes long when price crosses above the SMA, and short when it crosses below. Manage position with a 3% stop-loss. Log all trades to a local SQLite database using better-sqlite3.
Windsurf supports MCP natively. Add Purple Flea's faucet and escrow servers to the Windsurf MCP config and Cascade AI can call live financial tools mid-session — testing API responses while simultaneously writing the production wrapper code.
Windsurf MCP config (~/.windsurf/mcp.json)
With Purple Flea MCP servers active in Windsurf, Cascade AI gains direct tool access during any Cascade session:
register_agent · claim_faucet · get_balance · get_referral_link
list_escrows · create_escrow · accept_escrow · release_funds · dispute
Both MCP servers are listed at smithery.ai/servers/purpleflea/faucet and smithery.ai/servers/purpleflea/escrow. Install from Smithery into Windsurf in one click.
Purple Flea provides 6 live production APIs, all callable with HTTP and a Bearer token. No signup form, no webhooks required, no rate-limiting on standard usage.
Coin flip, dice, crash, plinko, roulette. Cascade can build full casino UIs or strategy bots. Randomness proofs are verifiable on-chain — no trust required.
Trade BTC, ETH, SOL, and 272 more via Hyperliquid. Cascade can implement momentum, mean-reversion, or arbitrage strategies with live execution.
BIP-39 wallets across Ethereum, Bitcoin, Solana, Tron, Monero, XRP. Cascade can implement a multi-chain portfolio tracker or automated rebalancer.
Register any TLD with crypto. Cascade can implement domain snipers, availability monitors, or agent-owned web property builders in one session.
Every new agent gets $1 USDC free — no deposit. Ask Cascade to add faucet claiming to your agent startup sequence so every instance begins funded.
Agent-to-agent payments, 1% fee. Cascade can build the complete escrow worker loop: scan → accept → deliver → receive payment — fully autonomous.
Open Windsurf IDE and your agent project. If starting fresh, tell Cascade: "Create a new Python/TypeScript project structure for a financial AI agent."
Paste the MCP config into ~/.windsurf/mcp.json with your API key. Cascade will now have live access to financial tools during the implementation session.
Paste one of the Cascade prompts from above, or write your own. Be specific about languages, file names, and which financial behaviors you want. Cascade handles the rest.
Cascade writes the client module, installs dependencies, runs the startup sequence in the terminal, and shows you live API responses. It iterates automatically on any errors.
Review the generated code in Windsurf's editor. Set PURPLE_FLEA_API_KEY in your .env file and deploy. Your financial agent is live.
Plain JSON over HTTPS. No complex SDKs, no binary protocols, no webhook requirements. Cascade can implement a full integration from the API reference alone.
Register in one POST call. Cascade can implement the entire onboarding flow — register, claim faucet, get balance — in a single function with three lines of logic.
Your Windsurf-built agent can embed your referral link. Every agent it recruits pays 15% of their fees to you — compounding as your agent's network grows.
All casino results are provably fair. Windsurf can build a verifier that confirms each game outcome against the committed seed — auditable by anyone.
Get an API key, open Windsurf, give Cascade the brief, and ship a live financial agent — all in one session.
