## Description

This MCP server provides specialized safety management for hot work operations like welding, cutting, and grinding. It calculates regulatory compliance requirements based on NFPA 51B and API standards, including fire watch durations, exclusion zone radii, and atmospheric monitoring needs.

## Tools

### calculate_exclusion_zone
Defines the physical radius of the safety perimeter around the hot work

### calculate_fire_watch
Determines if a fire watch is required and how long they must remain on-site

### check_atmospheric_safety
Evaluates if the air quality must be monitored before and during work

### generate_permit_summary
Aggregates all safety requirements into a single summary for a work permit

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Is a fire watch required for high hazard welding?
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, a fire watch is required for high hazard welding, and they must remain on-site for the specified duration after the work is completed.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the exclusion zone for cutting with combustibles nearby?
```

**Response:** 
```
The required exclusion zone radius is 35 feet, and physical shielding is mandatory due to the presence of combustibles.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Do I need to monitor the air in a confined space for grinding?
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, atmospheric monitoring is mandatory for confined spaces, and you must check for flammable gases and oxygen levels.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I determine if a fire watch is needed?**
You can use the `calculate_fire_watch` tool. It determines if a watch is required based on the hazard level and the type of operation being performed.

**Can I calculate the safety perimeter for grinding?**
Yes, the `calculate_exclusion_zone` tool calculates the required radius in feet and whether physical shielding is mandatory for operations like grinding.

**How is atmospheric safety handled?**
The `check_atmospheric_safety` tool evaluates if air testing is mandatory, especially for confined spaces, and identifies which gases must be monitored.
