Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant compute equipment cost per hour, compare repair or replace, check US compliance, decode VINs, look up recalls and find manuals.

What you can do
Offers eight equipment tools: cost per hour for owning and operating a machine, repair versus replace comparison, US state and federal compliance requirements, a fleet list health check, inspection checklists, VIN decoding, NHTSA recall lookup, and manual search. Cost and repair decisions follow the methods published on the Torgix site, and compliance items come with official source links and a checked date. VIN and recall data come from NHTSA, and manual search covers only the Discount Equipment library.
When to use it
Use it when estimating what a machine costs to own and run, deciding between repair and replacement, checking US state compliance items, or reviewing a pasted fleet list. Also useful for VIN decoding, recall lookups and finding manuals.
Requirements
Remote endpoint; no local runtime needed. No authentication, environment variables or headers are declared. Network access is required.
Before you install
The fleet health check requires pasting a fleet list, which may contain internal equipment details. Compliance results carry a checked date and may be out of date, and the recall tool cannot say whether a recall is still open on a specific vehicle. Manual search covers one library only.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Torgix Free Equipment Tools in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/ai.torgix%2Ffree-tools/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

equipment_cost_per_hour

Equipment cost per hour

Calculates what a machine really costs per hour to own and operate: depreciation, cost of capital, insurance/taxes/storage, fuel, lubricants, repairs and wear parts. Same math as the Torgix calculator at torgix.ai/learn. Purchase price and hours per year are required; anything else left out uses the calculator's defaults, which the answer lists.

repair_rebuild_or_replace

Repair, rebuild or replace

Decides whether to repair (or rebuild) a machine or replace it, by comparing cost per hour. The repair is priced by the hours it buys before the next major event. Uses the method on torgix.ai/learn/repair-rebuild-or-replace. Give the replacement either as a cost per hour or as a purchase price. For a rebuild, enter the rebuild cost and the much larger hours it buys.

state_compliance_requirements

State and federal compliance requirements

Lists registration, IFTA, IRP, DOT inspection, emissions, permit and highway-use-tax requirements for a US state (or DC) plus the federal items, each with its official source link and the date it was checked. Give a GVWR (and axles, and whether it crosses state lines) to also check CDL, USDOT, IFTA, IRP and Form 2290 weight thresholds. From Torgix's rulebook of 355 cited items. Not legal advice.

Parametersaxlesstaterequiredcategorygvwr_lbsinterstate

fleet_health_check

Fleet health check

Reviews a pasted fleet list (one machine per line: make, model, year, hours; a header row and CSV or tab-separated text both work, up to 200 rows) and flags old machines, high hours, possibly underused units, missing information and duplicate unit IDs, with a fleet summary. Plain rules, nothing stored.

Parametersfleet_listrequired

inspection_checklist

Inspection checklist

Returns a ready-to-use inspection checklist for a type of equipment or inspection: daily pre-use, DOT pre-trip, DOT annual, forklift, aerial and scissor lifts (ANSI A92), telehandler (ANSI/ITSDF B56.6), crane, trench, scaffold, harness, ladder, rigging, fire extinguisher, skid steer, excavator, backhoe, wheel loader, dozer, compactor, compressor, generator and more.

Parameterswhenequipmentrequired

decode_vin

Decode a VIN

Decodes a 17-character VIN with NHTSA's free vPIC database: year, make, model, body class, GVWR class, engine and more. On-road vehicles only; off-highway equipment uses serial numbers instead.

Parametersvinrequired

recall_lookup

NHTSA recall lookup

Lists the safety recalls NHTSA has issued for a vehicle's year, make and model, or for a VIN (decoded first). Shows campaign number, component, summary and remedy. It cannot say whether a recall is still open on one specific vehicle; that is checked by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with the dealer.

Parametersvinmakeyearmodel

find_equipment_manual

Find an equipment manual

Finds an operator, service or parts manual (or spec sheet) for a make and model in the Discount Equipment library and returns its title and link. Searches that library only; if it has nothing for the machine, the answer says so.

83% of the applicable checks met

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
