Builds optimal 24/7 staff rosters with a real MILP solver: rest rules, skills, nights, fairness. Connect the official Shift Scheduler MCP server to Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor through gate — one gateway URL, no config files, security-checked.

Real prompts you can type the moment it's connected — no setup, no docs to read.
“Use “list_shift_examples”: List the built-in example rostering problems (hospital ward, 3-shift plant, security post, fire station, 24/7 help desk). Use one as a start.”
“Use “get_shift_example”: Return the full input JSON of one example, in exactly the shape build_shift_roster accepts. Edit it (names, days, headcounts, rules) to matc.”
“Use “build_shift_roster”: Solve a staff rostering problem to optimality with a MILP solver and return who works which shift each day, coverage, unfilled posts, hours.”
“Use “get_shift_roster_result”: Fetch the result of a build_shift_roster job that returned status 'running'. Waits up to wait_seconds; call again while status is 'running'.”
Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how Shift Scheduler holds up.
Operated by Shift Scheduler (kindoflost.com) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.
This server only exposes public data — no account and no credentials are involved when you connect.
gate checks every tool for prompt injection, hidden instructions, data-exfiltration hints, and over-broad permissions before the server is available through your gateway.
If Shift Scheduler adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
Add one gateway URL to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client. One-time setup, about two minutes.
Choose Shift Scheduler in the gate directory. No sign-in needed.
Shift Scheduler's tools are live in every AI client you've connected — with rules and logging built in.

Fetched live from the official endpoint and re-checked daily by gate — not marketing copy.

https://staff-scheduling.kindoflost.com/mcpYes — Shift Scheduler operates its own remote MCP server at staff-scheduling.kindoflost.com. gate connects you to that official endpoint and adds security scanning, per-tool access rules, and an activity log on top.
Add gate's gateway URL to your AI client once, then pick Shift Scheduler in the directory. No account or sign-in is needed. From then on, Shift Scheduler's tools are available in every client you've connected to gate.
No. Shift Scheduler runs the server, and gate is fully managed. You just connect one URL — there's nothing to install, deploy, or maintain.
It's the vendor's official endpoint, and gate scans its tools for prompt injection and hidden instructions before it goes live, re-checks it whenever it changes, and lets you allow, block, or require approval for every single tool.
Yes — you can get started with gate for free and connect Shift Scheduler in minutes. No credit card required.
Every server below works through the same gateway URL — connect once, add tools anytime.
