Team-wide delivery dates

Enterprise contracts rely on strict business day counting. This MCP gives your agent the `business_deadline_tool` to calculate those exact target dates. It drops the result right into your shared project files. Everyone on the engineering team gets the exact same answer. You commit the configuration once. Copilot uses that shared context to keep your entire department aligned on delivery schedules.

Standard calendar math

Basic trial periods usually run on straight calendar days. The `calendar_deadline_tool` processes these simple additions without skipping weekends. You ask your AI client to figure out the 30-day trial end date for a new signup flow. It calculates the raw duration instantly. The generated code reflects the exact target date.

Global holiday logic for VS Code Copilot

Shipping software globally means respecting local bank holidays. Your environment calls the `holiday_registry_tool` to grab the specific off-days for any region and year. Vinkius manages the underlying connections to these registries. Your team just queries the target country. The resulting dates automatically respect local market closures.
