Calculate decision matrix
calculate_decision_matrixRead-onlyIdempotent
Use this when the user wants a weighted decision matrix, scored comparison, alternative ranking, or weight sensitivity analysis with explicit criteria, weights and scores. Accepts two to twenty options and one to eight criteria. Scores use a fixed zero-to-one-hundred scale; benefit means higher is better and cost means lower is better. Returns normalized weights, exact rankings and ties, pairwise break-even shares, up to four explicit weight scenarios and CSV. Does not research options, invent scores, infer preferences or predict outcomes.
