npm install @windsurf/sdk

# Python
pip install windsurf
```

### Step 2: Configure Authentication
```bash
# Set environment variable
export WINDSURF_API_KEY="your-api-key"

# Or create .env file
echo 'WINDSURF_API_KEY=your-api-key' >> .env
```

### Step 3: Verify Connection
```typescript

```

## Output
