- Full Details - Cross-Tool Memory - Token Efficient
```
## Response Structure
### 1. Progressive Disclosure Model
All responses follow a hierarchical structure allowing LLMs to access information progressively:
```typescript
interface OptimizedResponse {
// Layer 1: Executive Overview (50-100 tokens)
executive_summary: {
headline: string; // One-sentence summary
confidence: 'high' | 'medium' | 'low';
key_insight: string; // Most important finding
primary_metric: string; // e.g., "8,500% ROI"
};
// Layer 2: Insights & Analysis (200-500 tokens)
insights: {
primary: string[]; // Top 3-5 insights
risks: string[]; // Key risk factors
opportunities: string[]; // Growth opportunities
patterns: string[]; // Detected patterns
};
// Layer 3: Recommendations (100-300 tokens)
recommendations: {
next_action: string; // Immediate next step
timeline: string; // Implementation timeline
success_criteria: string[]; // How to measure success
alternatives?: string[]; // Alternative approaches
};
// Layer 4: Natural Language (Optional, 200-400 tokens)
narrative?: {
executive_briefing: string; // Conversational summary
technical_summary?: string; // For technical audience
voice_output?: string; // Optimized for TTS
};
// Layer 5: Full Details (Available on demand)
details: {
// Complete calculations, projections, etc.
};
// Metadata for LLM context
metadata: {
confidence_score: number; // 0-1 confidence
data_quality: string; // Quality assessment
assumptions: Array<{ // Key assumptions made
category: string;
description: string;
impact: 'low' | 'medium' | 'high';
}>;
calculation_context: { // How results were derived
methodology: string;
tools_used: string[];
benchmark_sources: string[];
};
};
}
```
### 2. Tool-Specific Response Patterns
#### predict_roi Response
```typescript
{
summary: {
total_investment: 1500000,
expected_roi: 8500, // Already capped at 10,000% max
payback_period_months: 4,
net_present_value: 15000000,
break_even_date: "2024-07-15"
},
// Semantic insights layer
executive_summary: {
headline: "AI investment will deliver exceptional 8,500% ROI in 5 years",
confidence: "high",
key_insight: "Customer service automation drives 70% of total value",
primary_metric: "4-month payback period"
},
// ML-powered predictions
ml_insights: {
success_probability: 0.87,
risk_score: 0.23,
similar_projects_performance: "Top 10%",
key_success_factors: ["Strong use case fit", "Proven technology"]
}
}
```
#### compare_projects Response
```typescript
{
comparison_summary: {
best_performer: { id: "project-a", metric: "8,500% ROI" },
quickest_payback: { id: "project-b", metric: "3 months" },
lowest_risk: { id: "project-c", risk_score: 0.15 }
},
synergies: {
identified: true,
value: 750000,
description: "Shared infrastructure reduces costs by 25%"
},
recommendations: {
portfolio_strategy: "Implement Project B first for quick wins",
risk_mitigation: "Bundle Project A and C for risk diversification"
}
}
```
#### quick_assessment Response
```typescript
{
instant_assessment: {
feasibility: "HIGH",
estimated_roi: "3,500-5,500%",
implementation_complexity: "MEDIUM",
time_to_value: "2-3 months"
},
voice_output: "Based on my analysis, automating your customer service..."
discovered_opportunities: [
"Consider adding chatbot for 24/7 support",
"Fraud detection could save additional $2M annually"
]
}
```
## Integration Patterns
### 1. Conversation Flow Management
```python
class ROIConversationManager:
def __init__(self):
self.context = CrossToolMemory()
self.preference = AgentPreferences()
async def handle_query(self, user_input: str):
# Step 1: Parse intent
intent = self.parse_intent(user_input)
# Step 2: Select appropriate tool
if "compare" in intent:
tool = "compare_projects"
elif "quick" in intent or len(user_input) < 100:
tool = "quick_assessment"
else:
tool = "predict_roi"
# Step 3: Execute with preferences
response = await self.execute_tool(tool, {
"input": user_input,
"preferences": {
"preferred_format": "executive_only",
"include_visuals": True,
"max_response_tokens": 1000
}
})
# Step 4: Progressive disclosure
if user_asks_for_details:
return response.details
else:
return response.executive_summary
```
### 2. Multi-Turn Conversations
```typescript
// Maintain context across tool calls
const conversationFlow = {
// Initial assessment
turn1: await mcp.quick_assessment({
natural_language_input: "We need to automate invoice processing"
}),
// Detailed analysis based on interest
turn2: await mcp.predict_roi({
// Use discovered parameters from turn1
use_cases: conversationFlow.turn1.suggested_use_cases,
refined: true
}),
// Compare with alternatives
turn3: await mcp.compare_projects({
project_ids: [
conversationFlow.turn2.project_id,
...conversationFlow.turn1.alternative_approaches
]
})
};
```
### 3. Error Recovery Patterns
```typescript
try {
const result = await mcp.predict_roi(params);
} catch (error) {
if (error.code === 'VALIDATION_ERROR') {
// Parse actionable guidance
const guidance = error.guidance; // "Investment amount must be positive"
// Retry with corrected parameters
const corrected = await correctParameters(params, guidance);
return await mcp.predict_roi(corrected);
}
}
```
## Token Optimization
### 1. Selective Field Access
```python
# Minimal tokens - Executive only (50-100 tokens)
response.executive_summary
# Standard analysis (500-800 tokens)
{
response.executive_summary,
response.insights.primary[:3],
response.recommendations.next_action
}
# Comprehensive (2000-3000 tokens)
response # Full response with all layers
```
### 2. Format Preferences
```typescript
// Configure response format based on context
const preferences = {
// For chat interfaces
chat: {
preferred_format: "conversational",
detail_level: "minimal",
include_visuals: false,
max_response_tokens: 500
},
// For reports
report: {
preferred_format: "structured_summary",
detail_level: "comprehensive",
include_visuals: true,
max_response_tokens: 5000
},
// For voice assistants
voice: {
preferred_format: "conversational",
detail_level: "minimal",
language_style: "casual",
enable_voice_mode: true
}
};
```
### 3. Streaming Responses
```typescript
// For large analyses, stream progressive layers
async function* streamROIAnalysis(params) {
// First: Executive summary (immediate)
yield { layer: 'executive', data: await getExecutiveSummary(params) };
// Second: Key insights (1-2 seconds)
yield { layer: 'insights', data: await generateInsights(params) };
// Third: Full calculations (2-5 seconds)
yield { layer: 'details', data: await calculateFullROI(params) };
}
```
## Multi-Agent Workflows
### 1. Parallel Analysis Pattern
```typescript
// Execute multiple assessments concurrently
const [quickAssessment, industryBenchmarks, riskAnalysis] = await Promise.all([
mcp.quick_assessment({ client_name, use_cases }),
mcp.predict_roi({ enable_benchmarks: true, benchmark_only: true }),
mcp.predict_roi({ focus: 'risk_analysis' })
]);
// Synthesize insights
const synthesis = {
immediate_opportunity: quickAssessment.instant_assessment,
market_position: industryBenchmarks.competitive_analysis,
risk_profile: riskAnalysis.risk_summary
};
```
### 2. Sequential Refinement Pattern
```typescript
// Start broad, refine based on interest
let analysis = await mcp.quick_assessment({
natural_language_input: userQuery
});
// If high potential, do detailed analysis
if (analysis.instant_assessment.feasibility === 'HIGH') {
analysis = await mcp.predict_roi({
...analysis.extracted_parameters,
enable_ml_insights: true,
confidence_level: 0.95
});
}
// If multiple options, compare
if (analysis.alternatives?.length > 0) {
const comparison = await mcp.compare_projects({
project_ids: analysis.alternatives.map(a => a.id)
});
}
```
### 3. Collaborative Agent Pattern
```typescript
class ROIAnalysisOrchestrator {
async comprehensiveAnalysis(request) {
// Agent 1: Data Extraction
const extracted = await this.contextOptimizer.extract(request);
// Agent 2: Intelligence Layer
const insights = await this.intelligenceAmplifier.analyze(extracted);
// Agent 3: Presentation Layer
const formatted = await this.experienceHarmonizer.format(insights, {
audience: request.audience,
format: request.preferredFormat
});
return formatted;
}
}
```
## Best Practices
### 1. Context Preservation
```typescript
// Use cross-tool memory for consistency
const memory = new CrossToolMemory();
// Store project context
memory.addContext('project-123', {
industry: 'healthcare',
size: 'enterprise',
previous_assessments: [...]
});
// Retrieve in subsequent calls
const context = memory.getContext('project-123');
const refinedAnalysis = await mcp.predict_roi({
...params,
context // Tool will adjust recommendations based on history
});
```
### 2. Adaptive Responses
```typescript
// Detect LLM capabilities and adjust
function adaptResponseForLLM(response, llmProfile) {
switch (llmProfile.type) {
case 'conversational':
return response.narrative?.voice_output || response.executive_summary;
case 'analytical':
return {
summary: response.executive_summary,
data: response.financial_metrics,
methodology: response.metadata.calculation_context
};
case 'visual':
return {
charts: response.visualizations,
key_metrics: response.summary,
trends: response.insights.patterns
};
}
}
```
### 3. Quality Assurance
```typescript
// Always validate response quality
const qa = new QualityAssurance();
const response = await mcp.predict_roi(params);
const qualityReport = await qa.validateResponse(response);
if (qualityReport.issues.some(i => i.severity === 'critical')) {
// Auto-correct or flag for human review
const corrected = await qa.autoImproveResponse(response, qualityReport);
return corrected.improved_response;
}
```
## Examples
### Example 1: Customer Service Bot Integration
```typescript
// Chatbot analyzing ROI for a user query
async function handleROIQuery(userMessage: string) {
// Parse natural language
const assessment = await mcp.quick_assessment({
natural_language_input: userMessage,
enable_voice_mode: true
});
// Generate conversational response
const response = {
text: assessment.voice_output,
quickActions: [
{ label: "See detailed analysis", action: "showDetails" },
{ label: "Compare options", action: "compareProjects" },
{ label: "Start implementation", action: "createProject" }
],
confidence: assessment.instant_assessment.feasibility
};
return response;
}
```
### Example 2: Executive Dashboard Integration
```typescript
// Dashboard requesting executive-only view
async function getExecutiveDashboard(projectIds: string[]) {
const comparison = await mcp.compare_projects({
project_ids: projectIds,
comparison_metrics: ['roi', 'payback_period', 'risk_score'],
response_preferences: {
preferred_format: 'executive_only',
include_visuals: true,
max_response_tokens: 1000
}
});
return {
topMetrics: comparison.comparison_summary,
portfolioHealth: comparison.ml_insights.portfolio_score,
recommendations: comparison.recommendations.next_best_action,
visualizations: comparison.charts
};
}
```
### Example 3: Slack Integration
```typescript
// Slack bot providing quick ROI assessments
async function handleSlackCommand(command: SlackCommand) {
if (command.text.startsWith('/roi')) {
const query = command.text.replace('/roi', '').trim();
const result = await mcp.quick_assessment({
natural_language_input: query,
client_name: command.team_name,
response_preferences: {
preferred_format: 'conversational',
language_style: 'casual',
max_response_tokens: 500
}
});
return {
response_type: 'in_channel',
text: result.instant_assessment.summary,
attachments: [{
color: result.instant_assessment.feasibility === 'HIGH' ? 'good' : 'warning',
fields: [
{ title: 'ROI Range', value: result.instant_assessment.estimated_roi },
{ title: 'Complexity', value: result.instant_assessment.implementation_complexity },
{ title: 'Time to Value', value: result.instant_assessment.time_to_value }
]
}]
};
}
}
```
## Performance Considerations
### 1. Response Time Optimization
```typescript
// Tool execution times
const performanceProfile = {
quick_assessment: {
without_apis: '0-10ms',
with_benchmarks: '~15s',
recommendation: 'Use for interactive chat'
},
predict_roi: {
standard: '1-3s',
with_monte_carlo: '3-5s',
recommendation: 'Pre-calculate for dashboards'
},
compare_projects: {
'2_projects': '<1s',
'10_projects': '2-3s',
recommendation: 'Limit to 5 for real-time'
}
};
```
### 2. Caching Strategy
```typescript
// Implement response caching for common queries
const cache = new ResponseCache({
ttl: 300, // 5 minutes for financial data
keyStrategy: (params) => {
// Cache by industry + project type + scale
return `${params.industry}-${params.project_type}-${params.scale}`;
}
});
// Use cached benchmarks when available
const response = await cache.getOrGenerate(params, async () => {
return await mcp.predict_roi(params);
});
```
### 3. Batch Processing
```typescript
// Process multiple assessments efficiently
async function batchAssessment(projects: Project[]) {
const batchSize = 10;
const results = [];
for (let i = 0; i < projects.length; i += batchSize) {
const batch = projects.slice(i, i + batchSize);
const batchResults = await Promise.all(
batch.map(p => mcp.quick_assessment(p))
);
results.push(...batchResults);
}
return results;
}
```
## Troubleshooting
### Common Integration Issues
1. **Token Limit Exceeded**
```typescript
// Solution: Use progressive disclosure
if (response.length > MAX_TOKENS) {
return {
summary: response.executive_summary,
has_more: true,
retrieve_more: () => response.details
};
}
```
2. **Slow Response Times**
```typescript
// Solution: Disable real-time APIs for speed
const quickResponse = await mcp.predict_roi({
...params,
enable_benchmarks: false, // Skip external API calls
skip_monte_carlo: true // Skip simulations
});
```
3. **Context Loss in Multi-Turn**
```typescript
// Solution: Use conversation ID
const conversationId = generateId();
// First turn
await mcp.predict_roi({
...params,
conversation_id: conversationId
});
// Subsequent turns maintain context
await mcp.compare_projects({
...params,
conversation_id: conversationId // Retrieves previous context
});
```
