## Description

You can stop manually calculating leave balances and worrying about policy caps. This MCP gives your agent direct access to the math behind employee entitlements. Instead of digging through spreadsheets, you can ask your AI client to pull current earned leave or check how much more an employee can accrue before they hit a hard limit. It handles the heavy lifting of projecting future balances based on steady accrual rates, making it easy to plan for upcoming absences. Whether you need to validate if a requested amount fits within organizational limits or simply want to see a projected schedule for the next few months, your agent can run these checks instantly. It turns your AI into a precise HR math assistant that knows exactly where every employee stands regarding their time-off limits.
