## Description

Managing a fleet of AI agents often leads to one instance getting slammed with requests while others sit idle. This MCP solves that by acting as a mathematical brain for your infrastructure. Instead of guessing how to split the load, you can use this to calculate exactly how many requests should go to each healthy instance based on real-time capacity and current connections. It handles the heavy lifting of complex routing logic, allowing your agentic workflows to scale without hitting bottlenecks. You can simulate session persistence to keep specific users tied to the same instance or check the overall health of your entire pool to spot imbalances before they cause downtime. By connecting this to your AI client through the Vinkius catalog, you turn a manual infrastructure headache into a predictable, automated process that keeps your agent deployments stable and responsive.

## Tools

### get_sticky_session_mapping
Finds the specific instance a user should go to for session persistence. This ensures a user stays connected to the same agent.

### analyze_system_health
Checks the stress levels of your agent pool. It provides a quick overview of utilization without deep math.

### calculate_distribution
Splits incoming request rates across healthy instances. It uses your chosen strategy to pick the best targets.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
How should I split 500 requests per second across my three agents if one is twice as powerful as the others?
```

**Response:** 
```
To balance the load effectively, you should distribute the 500 requests based on their relative capacities. 

Assuming your powerful agent has a capacity of 2 units and the others have 1 unit each:

| Agent | Weight | Request Assignment |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **Agent A (Powerful)** | 2 | **250 requests** |
| **Agent B** | 1 | **125 requests** |
| **Agent C** | 1 | **125 requests** |

This ensures the workload is proportional to the processing power of each instance.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is my agent pool struggling right now?
```

**Response:** 
```
Based on the current metrics, your agent pool is performing well. 

**Current Status:**
* **Average Utilization:** 38%
* **Peak Utilization:** 52%
* **Unhealthy Instances:** 0

There is plenty of headroom in the pool to handle additional incoming traffic.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Which instance should handle user_99 for a consistent session?
```

**Response:** 
```
Using consistent hashing, user_99 is mapped to the following instance:

* **Target Instance:** `agent_id_042` 

This mapping will remain consistent for this user as long as the pool configuration stays the same.
```

## Capabilities

### Calculate request distribution
Determine the exact number of requests to assign to each healthy instance using specific mathematical strategies.

### Map sticky sessions
Identify which specific instance a user or request should be routed to for consistent session persistence.

### Monitor pool health
Get a high-level view of how much stress your agent instances are under without running full calculations.

### Apply weighted routing
Distribute traffic based on response times or specific instance weights to prevent overloading slower agents.

### Execute consistent hashing
Route requests using hashing algorithms to ensure predictable and stable instance mapping.

## Use Cases

### Preventing instance burnout
An engineer notices one agent is hitting 95% CPU. They use calculate_distribution to rebalance the incoming 500 req/s across the whole pool.

### Maintaining user state
A developer needs a user to stay on the same agent for a long conversation. They use get_sticky_session_mapping to find the right instance.

### Scaling during traffic spikes
During a sudden surge, an architect uses analyze_system_health to see if the current pool can handle the load or if more instances are needed.

### Optimizing for speed
A team wants to route more traffic to their most responsive agents. They use weighted response time strategies to minimize total latency.

## Benefits

- Stop overworking specific instances by using calculate_distribution to spread the load evenly.
- Maintain user continuity by using get_sticky_session_mapping for reliable session persistence.
- Identify bottlenecks early by using analyze_system_health to monitor pool stress levels.
- Reduce latency by applying weighted response time strategies to favor faster instances.
- Ensure predictable routing for high-volume tasks using consistent hashing logic.

## How It Works

The bottom line is you get mathematically sound routing instructions for your agent fleet.

1. Connect your AI client to the MCP via Vinkius.
2. Provide your current agent instance metrics like load, capacity, and connection counts.
3. Receive precise routing assignments or health reports based on your chosen strategy.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How can the Agent Load Balancer Calculator help with my agent scaling?**
It provides the exact math needed to decide how to spread new traffic across your existing agents, ensuring you don't overwhelm one while others are idle.

**Can I use the Agent Load Balancer Calculator to keep user sessions stable?**
Yes, you can use the session mapping features to ensure specific users are always routed to the same agent instance, which is vital for maintaining conversation context.

**Does the Agent Load Balancer Calculator support different routing strategies?**
Yes, it supports several mathematical approaches including round robin, least connections, weighted response time, and consistent hashing.

**How does the Agent Load Balancer Calculator monitor my agent health?**
It allows you to check the stress and utilization levels of your entire agent pool, giving you a high-level view of system health without needing to run complex calculations every time.

**Can I use the Agent Load Balancer Calculator with any AI client?**
You can use it with any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf once you have connected it through Vinkius.

**How does the least_connections strategy work?**
The `least_connections` strategy assigns requests to the instance with the lowest ratio of current load to its total capacity.

**Can I ensure a user always hits the same instance?**
Yes, by using the `consistent_hashing` strategy with a specific request ID or user ID, you can achieve sticky session routing.

**How are unhealthy instances handled?**
All calculations, including `analyze_system_health`, automatically ignore any instances where the health status is false.
