Perplexity

Sync Claude Desktop with your biological clock

Stop guessing when your brain will actually function during your Claude Desktop sessions. This MCP Server lets Claude Desktop run calculations on your sleep patterns directly inside your chat window. By calling `calculate_circadian_rhythm`, your agent maps out your daily energy peaks and crashes so you can schedule deep work when your brain is actually awake. You don't need to manually calculate your REM cycles while chatting with Claude. The server feeds raw biological math directly to Claude, letting you plan your coding sessions or meetings around your natural chronotype.

Calculate perfect power naps on the fly

When the afternoon slump hits, ask Claude Desktop for a quick reset that won't leave you groggy. Our sleep optimizer uses the `calculate_nap_times` tool to find the exact window for a power nap based on when you woke up this morning. It calculates the sweet spot before your body slips into deep sleep. This keeps your energy levels stable so you can finish your Claude Desktop tasks without ruining your nighttime rest.

Kill sleep debt using Claude Desktop

If you pulled an all-nighter, your Claude Desktop workspace is probably full of typos. Your agent calls `calculate_sleep_debt` to analyze your actual sleep hours against what your body needs to function. This MCP tool gives your agent the data needed to build a realistic recovery plan. Instead of guessing how much sleep to make up, Claude Desktop gives you a targeted strategy to get back on track.
