## Description

Stop guessing when you'll finally finish that long biography or thriller. This MCP gives your AI client the ability to build precise listening schedules by factoring in the variables that actually matter, like your preferred playback speed and how many minutes you can realistically dedicate to listening each day. 

You can use it to see how much time you'll save by bumping your speed from 1.0x to 1.5x, or to verify if your goal of finishing a book by next Friday is realistic given your current habits. It handles the math of remaining content and completion forecasts so you can focus on the story. Whether you're a heavy listener trying to manage a massive backlog or just someone trying to fit a book into a busy commute, this tool turns vague estimates into a concrete daily plan.

## Tools

### calculate_completion_forecast
This tool predicts the exact date you will finish an audiobook based on your speed and daily time availability.

### compare_speed_impact
Use this to see the difference in total listening time when you change your playback speed.

### get_remaining_content_status
This tool calculates how much content is left in your book and what percentage of the total you have already completed.

### validate_listening_schedule
This tool checks if your proposed daily listening goals are actually achievable given the book's length.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
When will I finish a 1200 minute audiobook if I listen at 1.5x speed for 30 minutes every day starting tomorrow?
```

**Response:**

You will finish the audiobook in 54 days. Your daily plan includes 30 minutes of listening per day until completion.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
I have listened to 300 minutes of a 1000 minute book at 1.2x speed. How much is left?

3. Tell your agent your current playback speed and daily availability.
4. Ask for a completion date or a schedule validation.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this MCP calculate my finish date?**
It takes the total book length and divides it by your daily listening time and playback speed to find the number of days required.

**Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?**
Yes, you can connect this MCP to any compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf through the Vinkius platform.

**Does it account for playback speed?**
Yes, the tools allow you to factor in different speeds to see how they impact your total time and finish date.

**How do I know if my daily goal is realistic?**
You can use the validation tool to check if your proposed daily minutes will actually result in finishing the book when you want to.

**Do I need to host this myself?**
No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and start using the tools.

**How does the completion date calculation work?**
The tool calculates the effective duration by subtracting skipped minutes from the total duration and then dividing by your playback speed. It then distributes this time across your available daily minutes to determine the finish date.

**Can I see how much time I would save by listening faster?**
Yes, you can use `compare_speed_impact` to compare your current speed against a target speed to see exactly how many hours or days you will save.

**How do I know if my listening plan is realistic?**
You can use `validate_listening_schedule` to check if your proposed daily listening minutes exceed your total daily availability.
