Mock Data
This server currently uses mock data for demonstration purposes. The mock data includes:
MES: 3 production orders, 3 work orders, 4 equipment items
CMMS: 4 maintenance tasks, 4 assets, 2 maintenance history records
IoT: 5 sensors, 6 sensor readings, 4 devices, 4 alerts
To connect to real systems, replace the mock data imports in src/index.ts with actual API clients.

Scored across 12 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose targeting specific resources and actions, such as acknowledging alerts, creating maintenance tasks, or retrieving various entities like assets, devices, equipment, and orders. There is no overlap or ambiguity in functionality, making it easy for an agent to select the correct tool.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with underscores, such as 'acknowledge_alert', 'create_maintenance_task', and 'get_assets'. This uniformity enhances readability and predictability across the entire tool set.
With 12 tools, the count is well-scoped for a CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System) server that integrates IoT, MES, and maintenance workflows. Each tool serves a specific and necessary function without being excessive or insufficient for the domain.
The tool set provides comprehensive coverage for retrieving and creating key entities like alerts, tasks, assets, and orders, with good filtering options. However, there are minor gaps, such as missing update or delete operations for maintenance tasks or work orders, which agents might need to work around.
