## Description

This KeepTruckin MCP lets you manage your fleet and assets by connecting your Motive account to your AI agent. Running a fleet usually feels like a game of 'where's Waldo' played across twenty different browser tabs. You're constantly toggling between a map to see where a truck is, a sensor dashboard to check if the cargo is still cold, and a spreadsheet to see who's actually driving. It's a lot of context switching that makes it easy to miss a critical alert or spend too much time on manual data entry.

This connection puts all those data points into a single conversation. Instead of hunting for a specific trailer's temperature or a driver's location, you just ask. You get the facts you need immediately, letting you focus on moving freight rather than managing software. You can manage your inventory by creating or updating asset records on the fly, and you can handle team dispatches without manual data entry. It makes the heavy lifting of logistics coordination feel like a conversation rather than a chore. Because Vinkius hosts this connection, you get a unified way to pull these specific data points into your daily workflow without needing to learn a new complex interface. Whether you're checking for camera connectivity to ensure driver safety or pulling reports on idle time to cut costs, the info is always one prompt away. You can see what's happening in your yard or on the road without ever leaving your current workspace.

## Tools

### list_camera_connections
See every camera connection event in your fleet. It helps you verify that drivers are actually connected to the hardware.

### create_asset
Add a new piece of equipment to your inventory. Use this to keep your records current as the fleet grows.

### create_team_dispatch
Assign multiple drivers to a single trip. This simplifies complex logistics by handling team-based moves in one go.

### locate_asset
Get the current location of a specific unit. It's the fastest way to see where your equipment is at any moment.

### lookup_asset_by_external_id
Find a specific asset using its own unique ID. This is perfect for matching internal records with KeepTruckin data.

### list_reefer_activity_reports
Pull detailed reports on reefer activity. Use this to confirm that your cold chain is staying within safe limits.

### list_reefer_sensor_samples
Get specific temperature and humidity readings from reefer units. This provides the granular data needed for cargo safety.

### update_asset
Edit the details of an existing asset in your inventory. This keeps your fleet records accurate as conditions change.

### get_vehicle_utilization
Fetch data on driving time, idle time, and fuel usage. Use this to analyze how efficiently your fleet is actually running.

### list_assets
See every asset currently in your company's inventory. This gives you a high-level view of all your managed equipment.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Where is the trailer with ID 55022 right now?
```

**Response:** 
```
Asset 55022 is currently located at 34.0522° N, 118.2437° W (Los Angeles, CA). The reefer activity report shows a set point of 34°F with an ambient temperature of 72°F. Fuel level is at 85%.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Can you give me a summary of how much our trucks have been idling this week?
```

**Response:** 
```
I've pulled the utilization data for your fleet. Here's the breakdown for the last 7 days:

| Metric | Total Value |
| :--- | :--- |
| **Driving Time** | 142 hours |
| **Idle Time** | 38 hours |
| **Fuel Consumed** | 412 gallons |

Your fleet spent about 21% of its active time idling. Would you like me to look into specific vehicles with high idle times?
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Create a dispatch for the team heading to Chicago.
```

**Response:** 
```
I've created a new team dispatch for the Chicago route. This includes the two authorized drivers assigned to the trip. You'll see this reflected in your KeepTruckin dashboard shortly.
```

## Capabilities

### Track live asset locations
Get real-time coordinates for any unit in your fleet.

### Monitor reefer temperatures
Check humidity and temperature metrics for cold chain cargo.

### Create team dispatches
Assign multiple drivers to a single trip with one command.

### Audit vehicle utilization
Pull data on driving time, idle time, and fuel usage.

### Update asset records
Add or modify inventory details for your equipment.

### Check camera connectivity
Verify hardware status and driver associations for safety.

## Use Cases

### Cold Chain Safety
A logistics coordinator notices a reefer alarm and asks the agent to check the latest sensor samples for a specific trailer to see if the temp is still in the safe range.

### Fleet Auditing
A fleet manager wants to see if their trucks are sitting idle too much and asks for a summary of vehicle utilization for the past week.

### Quick Location Checks
A dispatcher needs to know where a specific unit is for a customer and asks the agent to locate the asset by its external ID.

### Rapid Dispatching
A manager needs to send a two-person team on a long haul and uses the agent to create a team dispatch for the trip immediately.

## Benefits

- Stop switching between tabs by getting asset locations and reefer temperatures in the same chat window where you already work.
- Reduce manual data entry for new equipment by using create_asset to populate your inventory records instantly.
- Improve cold chain reliability by pulling list_reefer_sensor_samples to catch temperature spikes before they ruin cargo.
- Cut down on idle time and fuel waste by analyzing get_vehicle_utilization data to find the most efficient routes.
- Simplify complex trip planning by using create_team_dispatch to assign multiple drivers without clicking through multiple menus.
- Maintain safety standards by checking list_camera_connections to ensure your drivers are connected to the necessary hardware.
