A deterministic, open-access [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server providing authoritative engineering specifications and calculations for offshore ROV tooling interfaces, resident autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) bathymetric surveying, cathodic protection (CP) electrochemical evaluation, and ASME PCC-1 subsea bolted flange preloads.
Grounded directly in the canonical technical whitepaper:

## Capabilities & Available Tools
| Tool Name | Governing Standard / Basis | Primary Function |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| `api17d_torque_tool_interface` | **API Spec 17D / ISO 13628-8 (Table 14)** | Looks up authoritative dimensional and torque ratings for ROV rotary intervention tools (Class 1 through Class 7), including socket geometries (11/16" Double-D to 3.5" square) and compatible ROV classes. |
| `auv_multibeam_survey_coverage` | **Acoustic Bathymetric Geometry** | Calculates AUV multibeam sonar line spacing, coverage rate ($km^2/\text{hour}$ and $km^2/\text{day}$), and carbon emission abatement metrics versus conventional DP2 dive support vessels. |
| `evaluate_cathodic_protection` | **DNV-RP-B401 / NACE SP0176** | Evaluates subsea structural steel electrochemical potential readings ($Ag/AgCl$), detecting active corrosion, optimal polarization, and hydrogen-induced stress cracking (HISC) risks in high-strength steels. |
| `subsea_bolting_torque_preload` | **ASME PCC-1 / API 17D App G** | Computes subsea bolted flange makeup torque (ft-lbs and N.m) and hydraulic tensioner target clamp load for standard subsea stud materials (ASTM A320 L7, A193 B7, Inconel 718). |
