# Classroom Project Planner AI Agent Connect

> Classroom Project Planner helps you manage complex group assignments by giving your AI client direct access to project status, student workloads, and task dependencies. Instead of manually checking every student's progress, you can ask your agent to identify blockers or check if a milestone is ready for review.

## Description

Managing group projects in a classroom is often a balancing act between keeping students on schedule and ensuring no one person carries the entire team. This MCP gives your AI client the data it needs to act as a project coordinator for your curriculum. You can use it to get a high-level view of how a project is moving or dive into the specifics of a single student's workload to prevent burnout. It handles the heavy lifting of tracking task dependencies, so you can quickly find out which unfinished assignment is stalling the rest of the group. Whether you are overseeing a science fair or a long-term research term, your agent can monitor milestone readiness to ensure students meet their deadlines without you having to check every single task manually.

## Tools

### check_milestone_readiness
This tool determines if all requirements for a specific milestone have been met.

### get_project_overview
This tool provides a high-level summary of the entire project status.

### get_student_workload
Use this to check how much work is assigned to a specific student to prevent burnout.

### list_task_dependencies
This tool identifies which tasks are blocking others to help you find the critical path.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Give me an overview of project PROJ-123.
```

**Response:** 
```
Project 'Science Fair' has 10 total tasks, 4 completed, and a total effort of 25 units. Scheduled milestones include 'Research Phase' on Oct 12th.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is student STU-456 overloaded in project PROJ-123?
```

**Response:** 
```
Student Alex has 12 units of effort assigned across 3 tasks.
```

**Prompt:**

**Response:** 
```
No, the milestone is not reached yet. There are 2 remaining tasks and 1 overdue task.
```

## Capabilities

### Workload Monitoring
Your agent checks individual student assignments to ensure work is distributed fairly.

### Blocker Identification
The AI identifies task dependencies to show you exactly what is stalling a project.

### Milestone Tracking
Your agent verifies if all necessary requirements are met before a milestone is marked complete.

### Project Summarization
The AI pulls together high-level status updates for any specific project ID.

## Use Cases

### Preventing Overloaded Students
Ask your agent to check if a specific student has too many tasks assigned in a group project.

### Identifying Project Bottlenecks
Use the dependency tool to see which unfinished task is stopping the rest of the group from moving forward.

### Milestone Verification
Check if a group has actually finished all requirements for a specific phase of a project.

### Rapid Project Audits
Get a quick summary of total tasks completed versus total effort required for any project.

## Benefits

- Prevents student burnout by monitoring individual effort units.
- Identifies project bottlenecks by mapping task dependencies.
- Reduces manual status checking through automated milestone verification.
- Provides instant project snapshots via your AI client.

## How It Works

Connect the MCP to your preferred AI client and start asking questions about your classroom projects.

1. Connect the Classroom Project Planner MCP to Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf via Vinkius.
2. Provide your agent with a specific Project ID or Student ID.
3. Ask your agent to check workloads, dependencies, or milestone status.
4. The agent executes the corresponding tool to pull real-time project data.
5. Review the results directly in your chat interface.
