## Description

This MCP server provides an optimization engine for coordinating the movement of goods from storage to transport vehicles. It uses specialized tools to determine the most efficient `get_loading_sequence`, allocate physical assets via `assign_loading_locations`, and evaluate performance using `calculate_throughput_metrics`. It also ensures safety and hygiene compliance through `validate_operational_constraints` to manage product changeovers and cleaning requirements.

## Tools

### calculate_throughput_metrics
Evaluates the efficiency and timing of a proposed loading plan

### get_loading_sequence
Determines the optimal order of products to be loaded to maximize efficiency and respect constraints

### validate_operational_constraints
Checks a proposed schedule against safety and hygiene rules before execution

### assign_loading_locations
Allocates specific physical assets (docks, racks, or ships) to the scheduled loading tasks

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Determine the best loading order for these products given their availability and transport windows.
```

**Response:** 
```
The optimal sequence is Product_A, then Product_C, then Product_B, with an estimated completion time of 14:30.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the throughput efficiency for this set of assignments.
```

**Response:** 
```
The average throughput is 450 units per hour with a peak utilization of 85%.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Assign available docks to the following loading sequence.
```

**Response:** 
```
Task_01 is assigned to Dock_A, and Task_02 is assigned to Dock_B.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does the scheduler handle product changeovers?**
The engine incorporates changeover requirements into the `get_loading_sequence` to ensure sufficient time is allocated for cleaning and equipment recalibration between different product types.

**Can I validate my schedule against safety protocols?**
Yes, you can use the `validate_operational_constraints` tool to check if your planned assignments comply with mandatory cleaning protocols and transport windows.

**What kind of transport assets can be managed?**
The scheduler supports maritime berths, railcar docks, and trucking docks through the `assign_loading_locations` tool.
