Cross-project search
Cascade only searches the open project. Tramya searches across all your Windsurf projects in one place.
Windsurf Integration · Cascade
Cascade is powerful.
Its memory dies with Windsurf.
Windsurf keeps your Cascade conversations in a local IDE database. Close the window, switch projects, reinstall — and it all disappears. Tramya extracts that context and makes it portable.
Three Windsurf limits Tramya covers
What Cascade can’t do.
Getting context out of the IDE
No native export. Tramya extracts the conversation as Markdown or relays it to Claude Code / Codex.
Finding what you discussed 2 months ago
The Cascade history is chronological, with no reliable project organization. Tramya ties every exchange to its repository and branch.
Native Windsurf vs Windsurf + Tramya
Objective differences.
| Capability | Windsurf alone | With Tramya |
|---|---|---|
| Multi-project search | No | Yes, cross-workspace |
| Conversation export | Copy-paste | Markdown, JSON, handoff |
| Resume in another agent | No | Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini |
| Association with a git branch | Implicit | Explicit and filterable |
| Persistence after uninstall | Lost | Kept on the Tramya side |
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to open Windsurf for Tramya to read the history?
No. Tramya reads Windsurf’s local database directly, cold.
Does Windsurf keep working normally?
Yes. Tramya is read-only and installs no plugin in the IDE.
Can I use Windsurf as a team with Tramya?
Yes. Each member keeps their local memory; shared project context goes through Tramya Cloud if you enable it.
What happens if I uninstall Windsurf?
Your conversations stay in Tramya. You can resume them in another agent.
