## Description

You shouldn't have to guess when your brain is hitting a wall. This MCP gives your AI client the math needed to manage your focus sessions scientifically. If you're deep in a coding marathon or a heavy study block, you can ask your agent to figure out your rest intervals based on how long you've been working. It handles everything from single session breaks to planning out entire days of work. You can set your own ratios or ask for industry standard recommendations to keep your mental energy steady. It also checks your math to make sure your break ratios stay within ergonomic limits, so you aren't working too long without a break. It's a simple way to turn your AI agent into a productivity coach that actually understands how much downtime you need to stay productive.

## Tools

### batch_calculate_schedules
This tool calculates the total work and break time for a series of consecutive sessions. It's useful for planning out an entire afternoon of study blocks at once.

### calculate_break_time
Use this to find the exact number of rest minutes needed. It takes your study duration and a specific ratio to give you a precise result.

### get_break_recommendation
This tool provides a suggested break duration based on how long you've been studying. It uses standard guidelines to tell you when to step away.

### validate_ratio_bounds
This tool checks if your chosen break ratio is within safe ergonomic limits. It ensures your rest periods are sufficient to prevent burnout.
