pich/ai-economics-mcp

**MCP server for AI economics.** Gives Claude, Cursor and any MCP client 12 calculators for
the questions that decide AI budgets: what tokens cost, what queries burn, and whether agent
work can be proven.
Listed in the official MCP Registry as **pl.piszczek/ai-economics** (domain-verified). Wraps the free piszczek.pl/tools API — no key, no sign-up,
stateless (inputs are never stored). The math is the same as the interactive calculators.

**Claude Desktop / Claude Code** (claude_desktop_config.json / .mcp.json):
**Claude Code one-liner:**
Tools
| Tool | Answers |
|---|---|
| token_cost | What do 1M tokens cost per month across GPT, Claude, Gemini, DeepSeek? |
| context_window | How many tokens is 50 pages, does it fit, what does carrying it cost? |
| agent_hour | What does one hour of an AI agent cost, fully loaded with verification? |
| model_routing | How much does routing to a cheaper tier save per year? |
| llm_energy | How much electricity does an AI query use? |
| joules_per_verified_task | Which model is most efficient per task that actually passes? |
| token_burn | What does org-wide token burn cost in money, kWh, CO₂? |
| humanoid_energy | How long can a humanoid robot run per charge? |
| proof_adjusted_autonomy | How autonomous is a "90% autonomous" agent once proof is required? |
| revocation_exposure | How long does a revoked token keep working across your stack? |
| verification_bottleneck | How many AI agents can a human review team absorb? |
| proof_debt | What does unverified AI work cost over time? |
All parameters are optional; defaults mirror the interactive calculators. Every response
includes result, formula, interpretation and a ready-to-quote cite_as sentence.
Example
> **You:** how autonomous is our agent really? it completes 90% alone, evidence for 95%,
> 80% independently validated, 90% on time
>
> **Claude** (calls proof_adjusted_autonomy): PAA = 61.6% — supervised autonomy. The gap
> vs the claimed 90% is 28.4 pp, and the biggest lever is independent validation…

Glama builds and releases
Glama generates its own Dockerfile from the
build configuration.
Use these settings:
- Build steps: ["npm ci --omit=dev"]
- CMD arguments: ["mcp-proxy", "--", "node", "index.js"]
- Environment variables: optional AI_ECONOMICS_API; no credentials required.
This is plain JavaScript: there is no build script or compilation step. Do not use
pnpm run build or npm run build. After syncing the repository, build the selected
