How do I calculate the total portions for a whole week?

You can use the `get_weekly_portion_total` tool by providing the number of children, the days they attend, and an optional buffer percentage.

Can I plan for peak daily demand?

Yes, the `get_schedule_overlap_impact` tool allows you to input a daily attendance list to find the maximum portions needed on any single day.

How many children can I feed with a limited supply?

Use the `get_capacity_planning` tool to determine the maximum number of children supported by your available portions.
