When you're dealing with goods that require specific handling, the process usually involves a lot of back and forth regarding what is allowed, how to pack it, and when it can be picked up. This MCP gives your AI client the tools to handle those steps directly. Your agent can first validate whether a specific item or batch meets the provider's requirements. Once confirmed, it generates a step by step plan for physical preparation, such as labeling or containment needs. It also manages the scheduling side by finding valid appointment windows that work for both you and the service provider. To ensure nothing goes wrong during the actual pickup, the MCP produces a final verification checklist. If an item doesn't qualify for standard collection, the MCP provides alternative handling instructions so you aren't left without a plan. ## Tools ### check_item_eligibility This tool checks if a specific item or a group of items is eligible for collection by the provider. ### create_handoff_checklist This tool generates a final verification list for you to use during the actual moment of collection. ### generate_preparation_plan This tool creates a detailed list of the physical tasks needed to get an item ready for its pickup. ### get_alternative_handling_instructions This tool provides specific guidance for items that the provider cannot collect. ### schedule_appointment_window This tool identifies valid time slots for collection based on provider availability and your preferences. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` Can I collect 5 units of hazardous chemicals? ``` **Response:** ``` No, the quantity exceeds the maximum allowed for hazardous chemicals.
