## Description

Planning a large family gathering involves more than just booking a venue. You have to figure out how to seat dozens of people while making sure grandparents have accessible spots and cousins sit near each other. This MCP takes that manual work off your plate. Instead of sketching layouts on paper, you tell your AI client what your constraints are, and it does the heavy lifting. It looks at your available tables, checks who needs wheelchair access, and calculates how to group people to keep the peace. You can verify how well a plan works or find the perfect table for a specific subgroup in seconds. It turns a multi-hour coordination task into a quick conversation with your agent.

## Tools

### find_compatible_tables
Use this to match specific groups to the best available spots based on their needs.

### list_tables
This tool provides a full view of all available seating options and their capacities.

### suggest_seating_plan

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Can you suggest a seating plan for my family reunion with 5 groups and 4 tables?
```

**Response:** 
```
I have generated an optimized seating plan. Group A is at Table 1, Group B is at Table 2, Group C is at Table 3, and Groups D and E are at Table 4. All capacity and accessibility constraints are met.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Which tables are available in the Garden area?
```

**Response:** 
```
In the Garden area, there are 3 tables available: Table ID Garden_01 (capacity 4), Garden_02 (capacity 6, accessible), and Garden_03 (capacity 4).
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Check if Table 5 is suitable for a group of 4 that needs wheelchair access.
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, Table 5 is an accessible table with a capacity of 6, making it suitable for your group of 4.
```

## How It Works

Connect the MCP to your AI client and start describing your seating needs.

1. Connect the MCP to your preferred client like Claude or Cursor.
2. Provide your list of tables and guest groups to your agent.
3. Ask the agent to suggest a plan based on your specific constraints.
4. Refine the plan by checking scores or finding better table matches.
