Patchrooms for Windsurf
Add visual feedback to your Windsurf app
Windsurf is an agentic IDE where Cascade edits your codebase and you preview the running app. Patchrooms layers element-anchored feedback on top, so every comment turns into agent-ready context.
Open your first roomWhy Windsurf teams need visual feedback
- Windsurf’s agent moves fast, so imprecise feedback becomes the bottleneck.
- Testers report bugs in prose; the agent needs a selector to act confidently.
- Patchrooms turns each report into element-anchored, agent-ready context.
- The result is fewer regressions and faster review cycles.

Add the Patchrooms review widget. Insert this script tag into the main HTML template before the closing </body> tag, exactly as written:
…then give it the snippet below. It loads on the live preview and turns on artifact-review mode — pinpoint comments anchored to the elements your reviewers click.

data-source="windsurf"
data-mode="artifact-review"></script> Review workflow
Share the preview link with your team or client. Anyone clicks an element, leaves a comment, and Patchrooms captures the selector, a screenshot, and the page context. Every comment carries a status — new, triaged, in-progress, closed — so nothing falls through the cracks. See the full UI review workflow.
Export feedback to your AI agent
Each report exports as clean Markdown with the element selector, a screenshot reference, and the artifact goal and constraints. Paste it straight into Windsurf and the agent fixes the exact issue — this is the heart of AI artifact review. A Patchrooms MCP server that lets agents read reports directly is planned, and a @patchrooms/react package is coming for tighter React integration.
