Purpose: One-command automation of entire workflow

Features:

• Auto-launch Windsurf with CDP
• Extract tokens from all sources
• Test authentication
• Display colored results
• Error handling & recovery

Usage:

# Full automation
python windsurf_quick_start.py --auto-launch

# Manual mode (Windsurf already running)
python windsurf_quick_start.py

# Custom CDP port
python windsurf_quick_start.py --cdp-port 9223

When to use: First time setup, quick validation, demos

Purpose: Extract authentication tokens via Chrome DevTools Protocol

Features:

• Multi-source extraction (localStorage, sessionStorage, cookies, headers, WebSocket, window globals)
• JSON output with metadata
• Verbose logging
• Error recovery

Usage:

# Extract from all sources
python windsurf_token_extractor.py --extract-all --output tokens.json

# Extract from specific source
python windsurf_token_extractor.py --extract-local-storage

# Verbose mode
python windsurf_token_extractor.py --extract-all --verbose

When to use: Token refresh, debugging, integration

Purpose: Test authentication using captured tokens

Features:

• Two test modes (StartCascade RPC, integration with windsurf_direct_probe.py)
• Token validation
• Detailed error reporting
• Integration with existing scripts

Usage:

# Test StartCascade
python windsurf_authenticated_probe.py --tokens tokens.json --test-start-cascade

# Test with windsurf_direct_probe.py
python windsurf_authenticated_probe.py --tokens tokens.json --test-direct-probe

# Use specific tokens
python windsurf_authenticated_probe.py --session-id "abc123" --csrf-token "xyz789"

When to use: Validation, debugging, integration testing

Purpose: Inject Cascade messages via CDP

Features:

• Direct renderer injection
• Network flow capture
• Console log monitoring
• WebSocket message capture

Usage:

# Inject message
python windsurf_cdp_inject.py --message "hello world"

# Custom CDP port
python windsurf_cdp_inject.py --message "test" --cdp-port 9223

# Capture network flow
python windsurf_cdp_inject.py --message "test" --capture-network

When to use: Advanced testing, research, automation

Purpose: Automated test suite validating entire flow

Features:

• 5 comprehensive tests

• Quick mode for CI/CD

Tests:

1. CDP availability
2. Token extraction
3. Token validation
4. StartCascade authentication
5. Direct probe integration

Usage:

# Run all tests
python windsurf_auth_test_suite.py

# Quick mode (skip slow tests)
python windsurf_auth_test_suite.py --quick

# Verbose output
python windsurf_auth_test_suite.py --verbose

When to use: CI/CD, validation, regression testing

Purpose: Original probe script (modified for integration)

Features:

• Direct LS communication
• Environment variable support
• Detailed logging
• Error handling

Usage:

# With environment variables
WINDSURF_SESSION_ID="abc123" WINDSURF_CSRF_TOKEN="xyz789" python windsurf_direct_probe.py

# Called by other scripts
python windsurf_authenticated_probe.py --tokens tokens.json --test-direct-probe

When to use: Low-level debugging, integration

Purpose: Runtime state management (existing utility)

Features:

• State persistence
• Session tracking
• Configuration management

Usage:

# Managed by other scripts
# Not typically called directly

When to use: Internal state management

# 1. Install dependencies
pip install websockets aiohttp

# 3. Use tokens in your application
# Read tokens.json and use sessionId + csrfToken

Time: ~30 seconds

# 1. Run full test suite
python windsurf_auth_test_suite.py --verbose

# 2. If tests fail, check each component
python windsurf_token_extractor.py --extract-all --verbose
python windsurf_authenticated_probe.py --tokens tokens.json --test-start-cascade

# 3. Check CDP availability
curl http://localhost:9222/json/version
