## Description

Managing a household means dealing with constant scheduling friction. This MCP acts as a logic engine for your family's calendar. Instead of manually checking every person's availability, you can ask your AI client to find the gaps. It doesn't just look at time blocks; it accounts for the travel time needed between appointments to ensure a schedule is actually physically possible. When a conflict arises, the tool helps you weigh the impact of moving an event against your existing priorities. You can generate new, conflict-free options by shifting movable tasks, making it much easier to reorganize a busy week without breaking the entire routine.

### get_conflicts

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this MCP handle travel time?**
The tool accounts for the time needed to travel between locations, identifying if a schedule is physically impossible due to distance.

**Which AI clients can I use with this?**
You can use this MCP with any compatible client like Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or VS Code.

**Can it suggest new times for events?**
Yes, the propose_alternatives tool generates valid, conflict-free options by shifting movable commitments.

**Does it help with priority management?**
Yes, the evaluate_priority_impact tool assesses how moving an event affects the overall balance of your schedule.

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

**How does the tool handle travel time between events?**
The engine automatically accounts for required travel duration. A conflict is flagged if the end of one commitment plus the necessary travel time is later than the start of the next.

**Can I move a fixed commitment?**
No. Fixed commitments have no movable window. The `propose_alternatives` tool will return an error if you attempt to move a commitment that is marked as fixed.

**How is priority used in rescheduling?**
The engine respects a strict priority hierarchy. High-priority commitments cannot be moved to accommodate lower-priority ones, ensuring critical events remain stable.
