# Mosaic MCP for AI Agents AI Agent Connect > Mosaic lets you manage workforce planning and project profitability through your AI client. Track team capacity, audit budget estimates, and organize work plans without jumping between tabs. It connects your Mosaicapp data directly to your agent for real-time resource orchestration. ## Overview - **Category:** human-resources - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_xgNhyEpLHOXxN54POhQo4BVj1lGQEh0gLdl1Ru1Y/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** resource-planning, workforce-management, capacity-planning, project-profitability, team-utilization, budget-tracking ## Description Managing a large workforce usually means drowning in spreadsheets or clicking through endless rows of data to see who's actually available. You have to check one place for team member roles, another for project budgets, and a third to see who's over-allocated on a specific timeline. It's a headache that leads to burnout and missed margins. This Connector changes that by bringing all that data into a single conversation. Instead of hunting for information, you just ask your agent about your team's current status. You can pull up work plans to spot lopsided workloads or audit bill rates to make sure projects stay profitable. It turns your resource planning from a manual chore into a quick check. Because Vinkius hosts this connection, you can jump from high-level portfolio audits to specific member check-ins in seconds. You get a clear view of your organizational throughput without the friction of manual navigation. ## Tools ### list_cost_rates See the internal cost rates and unit limits used for resource tracking. ### list_members Get a full list of every team member currently mapped in your Mosaic instance. ### get_member Pull specific details for a single team member, like their role and current assignments. ### list_work_plans See all scheduled work plans that map your resources to specific projects. ### list_calendar_events View all tracked calendar events to see how time is being spent across the team. ### list_check_ins Pull the physical log check-ins for team members to see real-time attendance. ### list_budgets See the simulated or structured budget estimates for your active projects. ### list_projects Get a high-level list of all projects and initiatives your organization is tracking. ### list_bill_rates View the organizational configuration for external bill rates across all projects. ### list_rate_groups Look up the defined arrays that map generalized rate groups for your team. ### list_roles See the categorical domains used to classify different project roles. ### list_currencies Get a list of the team-specific currencies used for financial logs and timekeeping. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` Who on the design team has the most availability over the next two weeks? ``` **Response:** ``` I've checked the current work plans for the design team.
