Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@app.quantcalc/retirement-engine Run a Monte Carlo projection: $1M, 4% withdrawal, 30 years."
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Gives Claude the retirement engine behind quantcalc.app, so a projection is computed rather than estimated.
A language model cannot run thousands of correlated return paths against a spending plan and get the odds right. It can ask something that can.

Install from the Claude plugin directory. The plugin installs switched off, and you enable it when you want it. Step-by-step instructions are in SETUP.md. To use the server without the plugin, add it as a custom connector:
https://mcp.quantcalc.appRelated MCP server: cinderfi-mcp
Connector: the hosted QuantCalc engine over streamable HTTP. No account or sign-in is needed.
Skill retirement-projections: loads when a plan, withdrawal rate or
success rate comes up. It keeps the assumptions attached to every number and
flags differences that fall inside the margin of error.
Skill setup: connection steps, what a licence key changes, and
troubleshooting.
Tool | Returns |
| Success rate, ending-portfolio distribution, and the assumptions that produced them |
| The recommended withdrawal order and Roth-conversion programme, its present-value advantage and range against traditional-first, and the after-tax success rate, with federal and state tax, RMDs, IRMAA and Social Security taxation paid from the portfolio |
| The same plan under each published capital market assumption set |
| Which assumption sets the engine carries, and what each publisher provides |
| What the engine models and what it deliberately leaves out |
All five are read-only: they compute and return, and change nothing. Inputs are not kept after the run, except that a failed request is kept for two days to diagnose it.
A success rate is meaningless without its assumptions, and a summary will drop a caveat it was not handed explicitly. So each result states:
the return model that actually ran — reported by the engine, not by the request;
the number of paths and the real trial count behind the rate;
the income it assumed, including when it assumed none;
whether a correlation matrix had to be adjusted before running;
a plain warning when a run is not precise enough to show a client;
for the tax-aware tool: the spending convention (after tax — what the household keeps), every default assumed for an input that was not given, and the tax items the engine does not model.
Optional. Without one, projections run at 2,000 paths (the 95% interval around a success rate is about ±1.5 points) and the tax-aware tool returns the first retirement year of its year-by-year schedule. A QuantCalc PRO key raises that to 10,000 paths (about ±0.7) and returns the full schedule. The tax engine itself — withdrawal order, Roth conversions, state tax — needs no key. The same key also unlocks the portfolio optimizer, glide paths, custom capital market assumptions and multi-period planning in the QuantCalc app. Those features are not tools in this plugin.
Set it in the plugin's configuration. It is sent as a connection header and never passes through the conversation.
The server receives only the inputs of each tool call, never the conversation. A random session identifier is used to count runs for each installation. A licence key is removed before anything is logged. Details are in section 6 of the privacy policy.
