Advanced calculus, linear algebra, probability, and finance tools for AI agents, exposed via the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
## Features
- **Calculus**: Symbolic derivatives/integrals, numerical Riemann sums, limits, volumes of revolution.
- **Linear Algebra**: Matrix multiplication, inversion, determinants, eigenvalues.
- **Finance**: Black-Scholes pricing, Option Greeks, Sharpe Ratio, Value at Risk (VaR), Cashflow schedules.
- **Probability**: Normal, Binomial, and Poisson distributions.
- **Engineering**: Numerical Laplace and Fourier transforms.
- **Optimization**: Newton-method root finding.
- **Meta-Tools**: `describe_available_tools` for agent discovery.
## Installation
### For AI Agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Roo Code)
Add the following to your MCP configuration:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"calc-tools": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/mcp-calc-tools/index.js"],
"env": {}
}
}
}
```
## Usage Examples for Agents
### Calculus
- "Calculate the derivative of x^2 + sin(x)"
- "Find the area under x^3 from 0 to 2 using 1000 trapezoids"
### Finance
- "Price a European call option with S=100, K=105, T=0.5, r=0.03, sigma=0.2"
- "Generate a monthly cashflow schedule for a $10,000 loan at 5% interest for 1 year"
### Linear Algebra
- "Find the eigenvalues of the matrix [[1, 2], [3, 4]]"
## Security & Reliability
- **Safe Evaluation**: Uses `mathjs` for expression parsing, avoiding dangerous `eval()`.
- **Input Validation**: All parameters are strictly validated via Zod.
- **Safety Caps**: Numerical methods have hard caps on iterations and subintervals to prevent DoS.
- **CVE Fixes**: Dependencies updated to address known vulnerabilities (e.g., `qs`).
## Development
```bash
pnpm install
pnpm start
```

Scored across 18 tools
Most tools have clearly distinct mathematical purposes, such as 'derivative' for derivatives, 'integral' for integrals, and 'black_scholes' for option pricing. However, there is some overlap between 'area' and 'riemann_sum' (both approximate areas under curves) and 'darboux_sum' (another area approximation method), which could cause confusion in tool selection.
The naming is mixed with some consistency in using descriptive terms like 'compound_interest' and 'fourier_transform', but it lacks a uniform pattern. For example, 'black_scholes' uses underscores while 'npv' is an acronym, and there's no consistent verb_noun structure, making it readable but not predictable.
With 18 tools, the count is borderline high for a calculator server, as it covers a broad range from basic math to advanced transforms and financial calculations. This might feel heavy and could overwhelm agents, though each tool seems purposeful within the mathematical domain.
The tool set provides comprehensive coverage of mathematical operations, including calculus (derivatives, integrals, limits), transforms (Fourier, Laplace, Z), financial calculations (NPV, present value, Black-Scholes), and basic functions (exponential, logarithm). There are no obvious gaps for a mathematical calculation server, supporting a wide range of agent workflows.
