Electrical / runnable MCP tool
Run the Wire Size Calculator in your AI assistant
Through the free Intry MCP server, ChatGPT, Claude, or Cursor runs this exact calculator and hands back a verdict and the cited source, not a guess. Tool name: wire_size.
Ask your assistant
Once Intry is connected, type a question like these. The assistant recognizes the job and calls the wire_size tool, then answers with the number, the verdict, and the citation.
