# Curtain Panel Calculator AI Agent Connect

> Curtain Panel Calculator MCP handles the math for your window treatment projects. Instead of guessing how much fabric you need or how many panels to buy, your AI client calculates the exact counts, validates fullness requirements, and estimates total costs based on your specific window dimensions.

## Description

Planning window treatments usually involves a lot of manual math to ensure the curtains look right. This MCP removes the guesswork by letting your AI client handle the calculations for you. You provide the window width, the width of the panels you want to use, and your desired fullness, and the tool gives you the exact numbers. 

You can use it to figure out if a specific number of panels will actually look good on a window or if they'll look too thin. It also calculates the total fabric width you'll need to buy and gives you a rough idea of what the project will cost. It's a practical way to move from a design idea to a shopping list without errors in your measurements.

3. The agent runs the specific calculation tool needed.
4. You receive the exact panel count, fabric width, or cost estimate.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this MCP help with curtain shopping?**
It tells you exactly how many panels you need to buy and how much total fabric width is required so you don't overbuy or underbuy.

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

**How accurate are the cost estimates?**
The tool provides a rough cost estimate based on the number of panels required for your specific window setup.

**What is 'fullness' in these calculations?**
Fullness refers to how much extra fabric is used beyond the window width to create folds and aesthetic depth.

**Do I need to host this myself?**
No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you, so it is ready to use immediately after connection.

**How do I know how many panels to buy?**
You can use the `get_required_panel_count` tool. Simply provide the window width, the width of a single panel, and your desired fullness factor.

**What is a fullness factor?**
The fullness factor is a multiplier that determines how much extra fabric is used to create folds. A factor of 2.0 is standard for decorative pleats.

**Can I estimate the total cost of my curtains?**
Yes, the `estimate_curtain_cost` tool allows you to input the price per panel to get a total estimated cost for your window setup.
