windsurf-auto-model-switcher

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates Windsurf Cascade AI model switching, enabling automated changes to the active model from workflows or scripts without manual UI interaction.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Programmatic model switching: switch Windsurf Cascade AI models via PowerShell scripts or automation.
• Model registry integration: leverage windsurf-model-registry.json to select models and costs; integrate with update-model-registry workflows.
• Workflow automation: integrate into CI/CD pipelines to optimize model choice based on task needs and performance requirements.
• Use Case: automate model selection in a data processing pipeline to swap to a faster model during preprocessing and revert to a more capable model for final reasoning.

Quick Start

1. Install required setup as detailed in SETUP.md to enable keybindings and initialization.
2. Use select-windsurf-model-in-ide.ps1 to switch to a specific model by query, e.g. .\select-windsurf-model-in-ide.ps1 -Query "sonnet 4.5".
3. After setup, verify the active model in Windsurf Cascade UI and run your automation tasks.
