Outcomes of the resource audit.

The AI processes your planning data to produce these specific results.

CAPACITY

Current load status

The AI pulls active assignments to show who is working on what right now. You see exactly how much bandwidth remains for each person.

CONFLICTS

Scheduling overlaps

By looking at planned entries, the AI flags where two tasks hit the same person at once. It highlights these collisions before they become problems.

GAPS

Unassigned time

The AI identifies windows where resources are sitting idle. This helps you spot opportunities to pull in more work.

HUMAN

Manual adjustments

The AI identifies the issues, but you decide how to move tasks around. It provides the data so you can make the final call.

    No. This MCP is read-only. It cannot delete, modify, or overwrite any of your resource or planning information.

    It uses the list_resource_planning tool to see all current assignments and scheduled tasks.
