## Description

Stop doing manual math every time you finish a paddle. This MCP turns your AI client into a specialized kayaking coach and trip planner. You can feed your raw data into your agent to get instant feedback on how you're performing on the water. 

Whether you're training for a race or just planning a weekend excursion, you can use these tools to turn distance and time into actionable insights. You can check your current velocity, figure out your minutes per kilometer, or see where you land in different skill tiers. It also makes planning much easier by letting you predict exactly how long a specific route will take based on your typical speed. It's a simple way to keep your training data organized and your trip logistics tight.

## Tools

### calculate_estimated_trip_time
This tool predicts how long a journey will take. You provide the distance and speed to get a total duration.

### evaluate_performance_tier
This tool categorizes your skill level. It uses your speed to place you into specific performance tiers.

### get_kayak_pace
This tool calculates your pace. It converts your speed into minutes per kilometer.

### get_kayak_velocity
This tool determines your speed. It calculates your velocity based on the distance covered and time elapsed.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
How fast was I going if I paddled 10km in 2 hours?
```

**Response:** 
```
Your speed was 5 km/h.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is my pace if I cover 5km in 30 minutes?
```

**Response:** 
```
Your pace is 6 minutes per kilometer.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
If I want to travel 20km at 4 km/h, how long will it take?
```

**Response:** 
```
It will take 5 hours to complete the trip.
```

## Capabilities

## How It Works

Connecting this MCP to your AI client gives your agent immediate access to paddling math tools.

1. Connect the MCP to your client like Claude or Cursor via Vinkius.
2. Provide your paddling data, such as distance and time, to your agent.
3. The agent calls the specific tool needed for your question.
4. You receive the calculated speed, pace, or time instantly.
