WHAT IT DOES

What calculate_bsa does on Medical Calculator MCP Server

AI agents invoke calculate_bsa to trigger actions in Medical Calculator MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call — builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.
