Strict type-safe cost analysis

Your Pydantic AI agent gets immediate, validated trip data. You define the schema, and this MCP ensures the payload matches every time. `calculate_trip_cost` runs through your runtime check, so you never handle malformed price data. If the numbers look weird, the agent stops before you waste a dime.

Fuel efficiency logic for Pydantic AI

Compare your options without the guesswork. This MCP forces the agent to handle fuel types as discrete, typed objects. Use `compare_fuel_efficiency` to see exactly which fuel saves money based on current regional prices. It keeps your logic clean and your budget intact.

Detailed trip auditing

Get a full report on your route. The MCP returns a structured summary that plugs right into your existing Pydantic models. `get_trip_summary` provides a final audit of your expenses. It turns raw data into a reliable log for your fleet tracking.
