Tempguru MCP Tools (12)
plan_staffing
CALL THIS FIRST for event staffing requests. Returns a configured-market catalog match, role-level W-2 rate math, estimated totals, tier-based lead-time guidance, and state compliance flags from the event's city, date, roles, and headcount. It does not confirm order coverage or live inventory; a coordinator does that after buyer submission. Use granular tools only for a single rate, date, or state fact. A complete plan may save a non-contact snapshot for 30 days and return plan_id plus continuation. If it returns no plan_id and the buyer needs persistence, call save_staffing_plan once; never save a plan that already has an ID. This tool never accepts or submits contact details, reserves staff, or creates a quote request. Omit roles for the catalog and a suggested mix. Treat totals as planning estimates, not quotes. Branch on status: plan, needs_roles, roles_not_found, or city_not_found; confirm suggestions rather than auto-applying them.
save_staffing_plan
Explicitly save a complete non-contact staffing plan for 30 days so it can be shared, resumed, or linked to a later quote request. Use only when plan_staffing returned plan_complete:true without a plan_id and the user needs persistence. Never call this tool when plan_staffing already returned a plan_id. Provide the same confirmed city, date, event type, attendees, roles, headcount, hours, and days; the server recomputes rates, totals, lead time, and compliance before saving and does not accept caller-supplied pricing or totals. This does not reserve staff, submit contact details, or request a quote. <hints>Branch on status: saved is the only outcome with a durable plan_id; plan_incomplete requires revising the inputs; for rate_limited or storage_unavailable, give the buyer continuation.form_url directly because request_quote requires a saved plan_id.</hints>
