# Ferry Capacity Checker AI Agent Connect

> Ferry Capacity Checker MCP gives your AI agent direct access to real-time maritime occupancy data. It handles the heavy lifting of tracking vessel limits, checking available passenger spots, and validating boarding requests to prevent overcapacity issues. You can connect it to your preferred AI client and start managing fleet logistics immediately.

## Overview
- **Category:** logistics
- **Price:** Free
- **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_0DM7WGXx1Z22243qPEvOoLHjKokUhPsS3jmQ2oov/ai-agent-connect
- **Tags:** ferry, capacity, occupancy, maritime, logistics

## Description

You can use this MCP to manage vessel occupancy without manually checking spreadsheets or logs. It gives your AI agent the ability to act as a real-time maritime coordinator. Instead of guessing how many people can fit on a boat, your agent can pull exact capacity numbers and check remaining space instantly. This is particularly useful for preventing safety violations by validating boarding requests before they happen. If you need a high-level view of how your fleet is performing, the agent can pull utilization status to see which vessels are nearing their limits. It turns your AI client into a logistics coordinator that understands the physical constraints of your maritime operations.

## Tools

### check_remaining_space
This tool calculates exactly how many more passengers can board a specific ferry.

### get_fleet_utilization_status
Use this to get a high-level overview of how many vessels in your fleet are currently at or near capacity.

### get_vessel_capacity
This tool retrieves the maximum passenger limit for a specific ferry.

### validate_boarding_request
This tool determines if a specific group of passengers is allowed to board based on the current vessel status.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
How many more passengers can fit on ferry V-102 if there are currently 45 people on board?
```

**Response:** 
```
There are 55 spaces remaining on ferry V-102.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Can a group of 10 people board ferry V-500 if it already has 95 passengers and a capacity of 100?
```

**Response:** 
```
No, the group cannot board because the total occupancy would exceed the vessel's capacity.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the maximum capacity for vessel B-77?
```

**Response:** 
```
The maximum capacity for vessel B-77 is 200 passengers.
```

## Capabilities

### Real-time occupancy monitoring
Your agent checks current passenger counts against vessel limits.

### Automated boarding validation
The agent confirms if a group can safely board a vessel.

### Fleet status reporting
Your agent identifies which ships in the fleet are reaching capacity.

### Capacity limit retrieval
The agent pulls the maximum passenger count for any specific ferry.

## Use Cases

### Safety Compliance
The agent blocks boarding requests that would exceed a vessel's legal passenger limit.

### Dockside Management
Staff use the agent to quickly check how many people can still fit on an incoming ferry.

### Fleet Optimization
Managers use the agent to see which vessels are underutilized or overbooked.

### Passenger Flow Control
The agent manages the timing of boarding groups based on real-time space availability.

## Benefits

- Prevents overcapacity by validating passenger groups before boarding.
- Provides instant access to vessel limits and remaining space.
- Identifies fleet-wide utilization trends through a single request.
- Reduces manual math for passenger counts and boarding approvals.

## How It Works

Connecting this MCP to your AI client gives your agent immediate maritime data access.

1. Connect the MCP to your AI client via Vinkius.
2. Ask your agent to check a specific vessel's capacity or space.
3. The agent calls the necessary tool to pull real-time maritime data.
4. Your agent provides you with the exact passenger count or boarding status.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this MCP prevent overcapacity?**
The agent uses the validate_boarding_request tool to check if a group can safely board based on current occupancy and vessel limits.

**Can I check the status of my entire fleet at once?**
Yes, you can use the get_fleet_utilization_status tool to see how many vessels are near or at capacity.

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

**Does this MCP provide real-time data?**
Yes, it is designed for real-time maritime capacity management and occupancy monitoring.

**How do I find the limit for a specific boat?**
You can ask your agent to use the get_vessel_capacity tool for any specific ferry.

**How can I check if a ferry is full?**
You can use the `check_remaining_space` tool to see how many spots are left or if the vessel is currently full.

**Can I validate a group of passengers before they board?**
Yes, the `validate_boarding_request` tool determines if a specific number of passengers can safely board based on current occupancy.

**How do I see the overall fleet status?**
Use `get_fleet_utilization_status` to get a high-level overview of how many vessels are near capacity or overloaded.
