If it does not appear, check that Gradient Dynamics: thermal and CFD simulation is connected and that you are looking at its prompts rather than its tools.
Global only — Windsurf has no per-project MCP config. Refresh Cascade after saving. Windsurf docs
Same prompt, other clients
Read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling prompts/list on 14 November 2026.
A listing does not declare its prompts, so asking is the only way to know them, and this
is what the server actually offers rather than what its listing claims. Names only are
stored; connect the server for each prompt's arguments.
