## Description

Managing art collections across different locations usually means jumping between spreadsheets and physical logs. This MCP changes that by letting your AI agent query your gallery data directly. You can get a high-level view of which galleries hold the largest collections or drill down into a specific location to see exactly how many pieces are sitting in storage versus how many are visible to the public. It handles the heavy lifting of calculating distributions and inventory totals, so you can focus on curation and exhibition planning. Whether you need to audit your total holdings or just check if a specific gallery is overstocked in storage, your agent can pull those numbers in seconds.
