# Altitude Sickness Risk Assessment AI Agent Connect

> Altitude Sickness Risk Assessment MCP gives your AI client the physiological modeling needed to manage high-altitude risks. It calculates your probability of Acute Mountain Sickness, suggests how many days you need to spend acclimatizing, and provides specific hydration targets and emergency safety protocols based on your specific trip profile.

## Description

You can use this MCP to turn your AI agent into a specialized high-altitude safety planner. Instead of guessing how your body might react to thin air, you provide your trip details and get specific physiological insights. It handles the math behind Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) risk, helping you decide if your planned ascent rate is too aggressive. You can use it to build out a full itinerary that includes necessary acclimatization buffers and daily hydration targets to keep you stable. When you're planning an expedition, it also generates emergency checklists so you aren't scrambling for protocols if someone shows symptoms. It's a practical way to add a layer of data-driven safety to your mountain travel planning.

## Tools

### get_acclimatization_recommendation
This tool calculates the number of days you need to stay at certain altitudes to safely adjust. It uses your planned ascent rate to suggest a safe schedule.

### get_ams_risk_score
This tool determines your probability and severity of Acute Mountain Sickness. It analyzes your specific trip profile to give you a risk score.

### get_hydration_guidelines
This tool provides specific fluid intake targets. It helps you mitigate physiological stress caused by altitude through precise hydration goals.

### get_safety_protocol
This tool generates a checklist of emergency actions. It creates specific response steps and warning signs based on your calculated risk level.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is my AMS risk if I go from 1500m to 4000m with 3 days of acclimatization, a susceptibility of 5, hydration of 8, and fitness of 7?
```

**Response:** 
```
Your AMS risk score is 6, which is categorized as High Risk. You should monitor for symptoms like headache or nausea.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How many days should I spend acclimatizing for a summit at 5000m starting from 2000m with standard susceptibility?
```

**Response:** 
```
You should plan for at least 5 days of acclimatization, with an additional 2 days suggested as a safety buffer.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What are my hydration needs at 4500m with a fitness level of 8?
```

**Response:** 
```
You should aim for 4.5 liters of fluid daily and prioritize electrolyte intake to maintain fluid balance.
```

## Capabilities

### AMS Risk Modeling
Your agent calculates the probability and severity of sickness for any specific ascent profile.

### Acclimatization Scheduling
The AI determines how many days you need to spend at altitude to adjust safely.

### Hydration Planning
Your agent provides daily fluid targets to manage physiological stress.

### Emergency Protocol Generation
The AI creates checklists of warning signs and actions based on your risk level.

## Use Cases

### Trip Risk Assessment
You input your starting altitude and target summit to see your AMS risk score.

### Itinerary Building
You use the tool to figure out how many rest days to add to your climbing schedule.

### Daily Health Management
You check your specific fluid requirements for your current altitude.

### Safety Preparation
You generate a list of warning signs to watch for during a high-altitude push.

## Benefits

- Reduces guesswork in ascent planning through physiological modeling.
- Provides specific daily hydration targets to prevent dehydration.
- Creates actionable emergency checklists based on individual risk scores.
- Calculates necessary acclimatization buffers to prevent AMS.

## How It Works

Connect your client to Vinkius and start asking your agent about altitude safety.

1. Connect your preferred MCP-compatible client to Vinkius.
2. Provide your trip details like altitude, fitness, and susceptibility to your AI agent.
3. The agent calls the specific tools to run the physiological models.
4. You receive specific risk scores, hydration targets, or safety checklists.
