-
Track Cascade agentic usage
Monitor Cascade agentic runs, chat sessions, and model usage across the organization. Reports show which teams use Windsurf most and which models drive the highest engagement.
-
Review security events
Inventory audit events and detect usage patterns that require security review. Policies flag anomalous activity and accounts with access beyond organizational policy.

How Windsurf governance works in Rencore
Rencore connects to Windsurf via the Codeium API and inventories members, seats, Cascade agentic runs, chat sessions, model usage, and audit events. Policies run on every scan cycle and flag seat waste, cost overruns, and security issues.
Who uses Windsurf governance
Heads of IT use seat utilization policies to justify Windsurf spend and recover unused seats. CISOs review audit events and access policies to enforce security boundaries. Engineering leads use adoption reports to compare Windsurf usage with other AI coding tools.
