## Description

You shouldn't have to guess if the weather will ruin a fresh coat of paint or a masonry patch. This MCP handles the math for you. It looks at your specific material requirements and compares them against upcoming weather forecasts to find the perfect time to work. Instead of manually checking humidity levels or temperature swings, you let your AI client do the heavy lifting. It cross-references these environmental constraints with your contractor's schedule and property access to build a realistic plan. This keeps your projects on track and prevents expensive rework caused by bad timing. You get clear windows for work, backup dates if things go sideways, and ready-to-send messages for your crew.

## Tools

### generate_contractor_communication
Produces a professional and concise message to confirm the schedule with your contractor.

### get_backup_dates

### get_preparation_tasks
Generates a checklist of necessary actions to take before a repair begins.

### get_viable_windows
Finds specific dates and times when a repair task can safely be executed based on weather and material needs.

## Prompt Examples
