Campus Pilot for students

An MCP app on the Model Context Protocol built by The Night Howlers at the Amrita University Amritapuri campus NitroStack × MCP To The Moon hackathon and deployed on NitroStack.

About this project

Campus Pilot is an MCP-based AI agent that acts as a campus operations copilot — checking schedules, room availability, and events, then actually acting on them (booking rooms, logging issues). Its standout feature is a real hardware tool integration: one demo room wired with a sensor and relay, so the agent can read live occupancy/conditions and physically toggle a light or fan. This grounds the "agentic AI" pitch in something judges can see happen in real time, not just database lookups. It reuses your embedded systems background as a genuine technical differentiator. The result: a practical, demoable tool rather than another generic chatbot.

Who built Campus Pilot for students?
Campus Pilot for students was built by team The Night Howlers at the Amrita University Amritapuri campus NitroStack × MCP To The Moon hackathon, in the Enterprise AI & Workplace Automation track.
What is an MCP app and how is it built?
An MCP app is an application built on the Model Context Protocol — an open standard that lets AI agents connect to tools, data, and APIs. This project exposes MCP tools and resources that agentic AI systems can call. It was built and deployed on NitroStack, the full-stack platform for shipping MCP apps and servers.
