Key Capabilities
Complex branching for utility rate audits
The `calculate_monthly_expenses` tool determines the financial impact of running heavy household machinery. Your agent uses these figures to branch workflows based on budget thresholds. If estimated costs exceed a set limit, Mastra AI triggers custom workflows to notify the user. You can write clean TypeScript logic to handle high-consumption alerts automatically.
Resilient daily power tracking with Mastra AI
The `calculate_daily_consumption` tool calculates exact kilowatt-hours based on appliance runtimes and wattage. You can wrap this MCP in automated retry loops to handle transient connection drops. This ensures your background auditing cron jobs finish reliably even if external network requests fail. The framework handles backoff and execution recovery out of the box.
Multi-appliance cost optimization
The `get_appliance_impact_summary` tool aggregates total operating costs and efficiency stats into a single payload. Your workflows can combine these reports for every device in a home to suggest scheduling changes. This lets you build autonomous systems that recommend off-peak usage windows.
