## Description

This MCP server provides a simulation engine for honey bee colony dynamics based on the HoPoBIM framework. It allows AI agents to model population growth, resource consumption, and biological risks. Use `simulate_population_trajectory` to project daily changes in brood, nurse, forager, and drone cohorts. Use `calculate_resource_and_foraging_impact` to determine honey production potential and resource stress. Finally, use `predict_colony_health_risks` to evaluate swarming probability and winter survival based on mite loads and seasonal factors.

## Tools

### calculate_resource_and_foraging_impact


### predict_colony_health_risks


### simulate_population_trajectory


## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Predict the population trajectory for a colony starting with 10,000 bees, a queen laying 1,500 eggs daily, and a forager mortality of 0.05 for the next 30 days.
```

**Response:** 
```
Over the next 30 days, the population is projected to grow steadily as the high queen laying rate offsets the forager mortality, with the brood cohort expanding significantly in the first two weeks.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the honey production potential for 5,000 foragers with a resource availability of 0.8 during the Summer.
```

**Response:** 
```
With 5,000 foragers and high resource availability, the honey production potential is high, and resource stress remains low.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the risk of winter survival for a colony of 20,000 bees with a high varroa mite load and no treatment applied?
```

**Response:** 
```
The winter survival probability is low due to the high varroa mite load and the lack of recent treatment, which significantly increases mortality risks.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What is the HoPoBIM framework?**
HoPoBIM is the biological framework used by this model to categorize the colony into functional cohorts like brood, nurse bees, foragers, and drones to simulate realistic population shifts.

**How can I predict if my colony will swarm?**
You can use the `predict_colony_health_risks` tool to evaluate swarming probability by providing current population density and resource availability.

**Does the model account for pests?**
Yes, the model includes Varroa mite impact, which affects both brood mortality and the overall survival probability of the colony.
