myeverydaydriver/med-vehicle-intelligence# MED Vehicle Intelligence **Expert car repair and maintenance advisory tools from a 20-year mechanic veteran.** The first automotive MCP server — built so AI assistants can give vehicle owners the same straight answers a trusted mechanic friend would give. ## What it does MED Vehicle Intelligence gives Claude (and other MCP clients) access to real automotive expertise grounded in 20+ years of shop experience. No upselling, no fluff, no "it depends" — just direct guidance on the car decisions that actually matter. ## Tools **`check_repair_estimate`** — Compare a repair quote against typical price ranges for independent shops and dealers. Get a clear "in range / high / low" verdict plus specific questions to ask the shop before authorizing the work. **`get_maintenance_schedule`** — See what maintenance is actually due now, what's coming in the next 10,000 miles, and which common "upsells" to push back on. Includes vehicle-specific known issues by make and model. **`should_i_fix_or_replace`** — Stop guessing on $3,000 decisions. Analyzes repair cost versus vehicle value, mileage, age, and repair history. Returns a recommendation backed by the real cost of replacement, not gut feel. **`check_shop_red_flags`** — Describe a shop interaction in plain English and get an analysis based on 7 common red flags from 20 years inside the automotive industry. The questions you didn't know to ask. ## Built for - **Vehicle owners** facing repair decisions or unexpected estimates - **Used car buyers** doing pre-purchase due diligence - **Anyone** who wants a second opinion before saying yes at the service counter ## Behind the data Every recommendation is grounded in bundled knowledge bases — real repair cost ranges, manufacturer maintenance schedules, common issues by make and model, and a curated red-flag detection framework. No external API dependencies. No data leaves the server. Fully read-only — safe to run without permission prompts. --- **Part of [My Everyday Driver](https://myeverydaydriver.com)** — straight automotive advice for drivers who don't have a mechanic friend.
