Tools

• build_shift_roster ~1431 tokens
  Solve a staff rostering problem to optimality with a MILP solver and return who works which shift each day, coverage, unfilled posts, hours per person and warnings. Solves take 5-60 s. Pass either `example` (to solve a built-in example as-is) or the roster input fields. If the result has status 'run
• check_request ~166 tokens
  Describe what the user wants in plain words and get back whether this server can do it, which limits it would hit, and the closest thing it CAN do. Instant, no solve. Use it when unsure the tool fits (shift swaps, payroll, time clocks, very large teams or long horizons).
• get_shift_example ~148 tokens
  Return the full input JSON of one example, in exactly the shape build_shift_roster accepts. Edit it (names, days, headcounts, rules) to match the user's situation.
• get_shift_roster_result ~120 tokens
  Fetch the result of a build_shift_roster job that returned status 'running'. Waits up to wait_seconds; call again while status is 'running'. Jobs expire 15 minutes after they finish.
• list_shift_examples ~86 tokens
  List the built-in example rostering problems (hospital ward, 3-shift plant, security post, fire station, 24/7 help desk). Use one as a starting point for the user's own roster.
