## Description

You can use this MCP to turn your AI agent into a specialized sleep coach for high-stakes athletics. Instead of guessing when to sleep or how to handle a long flight, you get specific, data-driven instructions. It handles the math of sleep pressure and circadian shifts so you don't have to. Whether you're dealing with a sudden time zone change or trying to manage pre-race anxiety, your AI client can now provide actionable plans for your bedtimes, nap durations, and even your room temperature. It's built to help athletes stay on their biological schedule, even when travel or competition timing tries to throw them off.

## Tools

### get_environment_optimization
This tool suggests specific changes to your surroundings, like light and temperature, to improve sleep quality.

### get_nap_strategy
Use this to find the best time and length for a nap to manage your sleep pressure without feeling groggy.

### get_sleep_schedule
This tool calculates your ideal sleep and wake times based on your upcoming competition schedule.

### get_travel_adjustment_plan
This tool builds a plan to shift your circadian rhythm and minimize jet lag after traveling to a new time zone.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
I have a competition at 2:00 PM tomorrow in New York. I usually wake up at 7:00 AM in London. I am traveling from London to New York. What is my sleep schedule?
```

**Response:** 
```
Based on your travel and competition time, you should aim to go to bed at 10:00 PM local time and wake up at 6:00 AM local time to ensure you are fully alert for your 2:00 PM start.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
I'm feeling very anxious about my upcoming race. How should I set up my room for sleep?
```

**Response:** 
```
To manage high anxiety, you should ensure your room is dark, use white noise to block auditory stimuli, and keep the temperature between 60-67°F (15-19°C).
```

**Prompt:** 
```
I have a long flight today and need to stay alert for a competition tomorrow morning. Should I take a nap?
```

**Response:** 
```
A 20-minute power nap during your travel window is recommended to manage sleep pressure without inducing significant sleep inertia.
```
