# Wallpaper Roll Calculator MCP. AI Agent Connect

> Wallpaper Roll Calculator MCP calculates the exact number of rolls required for any room. It accounts for pattern repeats and waste so you don't end up with extra rolls or, worse, running out halfway through a wall. Connect it to your AI client to handle all the math for your next renovation project.

## Description

You shouldn't have to do manual math every time you pick out a new pattern. This MCP handles the heavy lifting of wallpaper estimation. When you're planning a room, you can give your AI client the wall dimensions and the roll specs, and it will tell you exactly what to order. It doesn't just look at square footage; it looks at how much paper you'll actually lose when trying to match a pattern. If you have a specific design with a large repeat, the tool calculates that impact so your coverage numbers stay realistic. You can also check if your measurements make sense before you hit buy, preventing costly mistakes. It's a simple way to turn a conversation about design into a precise shopping list.

## Tools

### analyze_pattern_impact
This tool calculates how much paper is lost because of the wallpaper pattern. It helps you understand the true coverage of each roll.

### calculate_required_rolls
This tool determines the total number of rolls you need to purchase for a specific project.

### get_project_summary
This tool provides a high-level breakdown of all your wallpaper requirements in one view.

### validate_dimensions
This tool checks your wall and roll measurements to ensure they are realistic for a real-world application.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
How many rolls of wallpaper do I need for a 20 square meter wall if each roll covers 5 square meters and there is a 0.5 meter pattern repeat?
```

**Response:** 
```
You will need 5 rolls of wallpaper for this project.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Give me a summary for a 50m2 area with 10m2 rolls and a 10% wastage buffer.
```

**Response:** 
```
The base area is 50m2, the buffer area is 5m2, and you will need 6 rolls in total.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much paper is lost if my roll is 0.5m wide with a 0.2m pattern repeat and a straight match?
```

**Response:** 
```
The loss per strip is 0.2 meters, which reduces the effective coverage of each roll.
```

## Capabilities

### Pattern Waste Analysis
Your agent uses this to see how much paper is lost to pattern matching.

### Roll Count Estimation
Your agent calculates the final number of rolls to order based on area and roll size.

### Measurement Validation
Your agent checks that your input dimensions are physically possible.

### Project Summaries
Your agent generates a full breakdown of the materials needed for a job.

## Use Cases

### Pattern Matching
Calculate how much extra paper to buy when using a design with a large vertical repeat.

### Budget Planning
Get a precise roll count to estimate the total cost of a room makeover.

### Error Checking
Verify that your wall measurements and roll sizes are compatible before you start a project.

### Material Summaries
Generate a quick overview of all requirements for multiple walls in one room.

## Benefits

- Reduces paper waste by accounting for pattern repeats.
- Prevents ordering errors by validating wall dimensions.
- Provides a clear breakdown of total rolls needed.
- Eliminates manual math for complex pattern matching.

## How It Works

You connect the MCP to your client and start asking questions about your project.

1. Connect the MCP to your AI client through Vinkius.
2. Provide your wall dimensions and wallpaper roll specifications to your agent.
3. The agent uses the tools to calculate rolls and pattern loss.
4. Receive a precise count or a full project summary.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does this MCP account for pattern repeats?**
It uses the analyze_pattern_impact tool to calculate exactly how much paper is lost when matching patterns, ensuring you don't under-order.

**Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?**
Yes, you can connect this MCP to any compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

**What if my measurements are wrong?**
The validate_dimensions tool checks your inputs to make sure the wall and roll sizes are realistic before you finalize your calculations.

**Does it handle wastage?**
Yes, you can include a wastage buffer in your request to get a summary that includes extra paper for mistakes or trimming.

**Do I need to host this myself?**
No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect it to your preferred AI client.

**How does the tool account for pattern repeats?**
The `calculate_required_rolls` tool reduces the effective coverage of each roll based on the `patternRepeatLength` and the `patternMatchType` you provide.

**Can I add a buffer for mistakes?**
Yes, you can use the `wastagePercentage` parameter in `calculate_required_rolls` to add a safety buffer for cutting errors or irregularities.

**What if my measurements are unusual?**
You can use `validate_dimensions` to check if your wall height, wall width, and roll width are within standard architectural ranges.
