## Description

Managing a campsite means constantly juggling numbers. You need to know if a group of ten can fit in the tents you actually have on hand, or if you're about to overstuff a four-person tent. This MCP takes that math off your plate. You can give your AI client your full inventory list and then ask it to run the numbers for any group size or specific tent assignment. It works by comparing your camper counts against your available equipment to ensure no one is left without a spot and no tent is over capacity. Whether you are planning a large summer camp or just organizing a weekend trip, you can use it to verify assignments or estimate future gear needs based on your current stock.

## Tools

### calculate_required_tents
This tool estimates the minimum number of tents you'll need for a group if all tents are the same size.

### check_tent_availability
Use this to see if a specific group of campers can actually fit into a set of tents you've selected.

### get_tent_inventory_summary
This tool provides a high-level look at your total available capacity across all your gear.

### validate_group_distribution
This tool checks if your specific plan for putting campers into different tents stays within each tent's limit.

## Prompt Examples

```
Can 10 campers fit in these tents: [4, 4, 4]?
