Create a shared canvas
- Add a panel for your current Scout mission, including persona notes and critical paths.
- Pin open tabs for affected code files alongside the latest Scout findings.
- Use comments in Windsurf to assign fixes stemming from Scout’s report.
Run explorations without leaving flow
1
Stage a preview
Use Windsurf’s integrated terminals to spin up your app locally or deploy a branch preview.
2
Launch Scout
Send the preview link to Scout. Choose a timebox that matches the scope of your changes.
3
Apply feedback
As Scout findings arrive, keep them visible in your canvas and check them off as you address each issue.
Collaborate in real time
- Invite teammates into the same Windsurf canvas so everyone sees the code and the quality feedback simultaneously.
- Use Scout’s mentions to notify collaborators when you need validation or pairing on a tricky bug.
- When you’re done, export the canvas and attach it to the completed Scout mission for future reference.
