Key Capabilities
Real-time UI streaming for Vercel AI SDK
The `get_appliance_impact_summary` tool fetches complete energy and cost overviews for any household device instantly. This MCP feeds the data directly into your edge-compatible streaming completions. Users see the numbers populate live in your React or Next.js components. No loading spinners or stale page refreshes while waiting for the calculation to finish.
Instant daily consumption calculations
The `calculate_daily_consumption` tool measures exact kilowatt-hour usage based on appliance wattage and operating hours. Your application handles the raw math on the fly. This lets you build interactive sliders where users adjust runtime and see immediate power draw changes. The calculations run within your existing edge runtime without cold starts.
Automated monthly financial projections
The `calculate_monthly_expenses` tool processes regional utility rates to output dollar figures for ongoing power usage. You can feed these financial results directly into interactive charts. It gives your users clear cost breakdowns without complex backend calculations.
