## Description

This MCP server provides specialized tools to model the decay of infrastructure technology. It calculates obsolescence risk scores, estimates technology refresh timelines, and quantifies financial write-off risks. By accounting for innovation pace and competitive pressure, it helps organizations predict when assets will become unviable. Use `calculate_obsolescence_risk` to find the severity of risk, `estimate_refresh_timeline` to plan upgrades, and `assess_write_off_risk` to evaluate potential financial losses.

## Tools

### analyze_market_impact
Provides a high-level summary of how market trends influence the specific asset's risk profile

### assess_write_off_risk
Quantifies the financial danger of an asset becoming worthless before its expected end-of-life

### calculate_obsolescence_risk
Evaluates the current risk level of a specific infrastructure asset based on its age and lifecycle

### estimate_refresh_timeline
Determines how many years remain before an asset requires replacement

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the risk score for a 5-year-old server with a 7-year lifecycle and a standard innovation pace?
```

**Response:** 
```
The obsolescence risk score is 7.14, and the remaining utility is 28.57%.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How many years until I need to replace my 3-year-old networking gear if it has an 8-year lifecycle and rapid innovation?
```

**Response:** 
```
You have 2.5 years remaining before a mandatory refresh is required.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the financial exposure for a $50,000 asset that is 6 years into a 10-year lifecycle with high competitive pressure?
```

**Response:** 
```
The write-off probability is 65% with a financial exposure of $32,500.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How is the obsolescence risk score calculated?**
The score is determined by the ratio of the asset's age to its total lifecycle, which is then adjusted upward based on the current innovation pace.

**Can I use this to plan my budget?**
Yes, by using `assess_write_off_risk`, you can quantify the financial exposure and potential loss of asset value to inform capital expenditure planning.

**What is the impact of innovation pace?**
A higher innovation pace accelerates the obsolescence process, reducing the remaining useful life of an asset even if it is physically sound.
