## Description

This MCP server provides a decision-support engine to quantify the economic impact of software engineering review cycles. It allows teams to calculate the `calculate_review_roi` to determine financial returns, use `analyze_review_depth` to find the optimal balance of effort, and `evaluate_tool_effectiveness` to justify tool expenditures. It also provides `estimate_team_economics` to understand how team size affects review density and cost distribution.

## Tools

### evaluate_tool_effectiveness
Evaluates the economic justification for investing in code review tools

### estimate_team_economics
Estimates the economic distribution of review effort across the engineering team

### analyze_review_depth
Analyzes whether the current code review depth is optimal, under-reviewed, or over-reviewed

### calculate_review_roi
Calculates the financial return on investment for the code review process

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the ROI if we spent 50 hours on reviews, caught $10,000 in defects, spent $500 on tools, and have a team of 5?
```

**Response:** 
```
The return on investment is 181.82% with a net value of $9,500.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
We caught 20 defects in 10 hours with a team skill level of 0.8. Is our review depth optimal?
```

**Response:** 
```
The review depth is rated as Optimal with an efficiency score of 2.5.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is a $2,000 tool justified if it helps avoid $15,000 in rework and finds 30 defects?
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, the tool investment is justified with a tool value ratio of 7.5.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate the ROI of my reviews?**
You can use the `calculate_review_roi` tool by providing the total review hours, the rework cost avoided, the cost of tools used, and the team size.

**Can this tool help justify buying new linting or static analysis tools?**
Yes, the `evaluate_tool_effectiveness` tool specifically calculates if the investment in review tools is justified by the value of defects they help avoid.

**How does team size affect the results?**
The `estimate_team_economics` tool analyzes how team size impacts the cost per engineer and the overall review density across your organization.
