## Description

This MCP server provides specialized decision-support tools for quinoa processing. It allows AI agents to determine the physical parameters required to reach target saponin levels using `get_removal_requirements`. Users can estimate the financial impact of processing via `calculate_economic_impact`, predict consumer acceptance with `estimate_quality_and_acceptance`, and verify if a specific processing goal is achievable using `validate_process_feasibility`.

## Tools

### calculate_economic_impact
Estimates the financial cost of the removal process

### estimate_quality_and_acceptance
Predicts the final quality and whether the consumer will accept the product

### get_removal_requirements
Determines the physical processing parameters needed to reach a target saponin level

### validate_process_feasibility
Checks if a specific target is physically or economically viable

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
I have a bitter quinoa lot with 45 units of saponin. I want to reach 5 units using the washing method. What are the requirements?
```

**Response:** 
```
To reach a target of 5 units from an initial 45 units using washing, you will need a processing time of 120 minutes and a water usage of 500 liters. This process is expected to result in a 2.5% seed loss.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the economic impact of processing 1000kg of quinoa if the base cost is $2.00/kg, the processing time is 60 mins, seed loss is 5%, and resource cost is $0.50 per unit?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total adjusted cost to produce one kilogram of processed quinoa is $2.15.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is it feasible to reach 2 units of saponin from 50 units using abrasion for a bitter variety?
```

**Response:** 
```
No, reaching a target of 2 units for a bitter variety using abrasion is not feasible as the required seed loss would exceed the maximum threshold for quality.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does the tool handle different quinoa varieties?**
The tool distinguishes between 'sweet' and 'bitter' varieties. Bitter varieties require more intensive processing time and result in higher seed loss to reach the same target saponin level.

**Can I calculate the cost of water usage for washing?**
Yes, by using `calculate_economic_impact` alongside the results from `get_removal_requirements`, you can factor in resource costs like water and energy.

**What determines the consumer acceptance level?**
Acceptance is determined by the final saponin level and the percentage of seed loss. If processing is too aggressive and causes high seed loss, the quality score drops, potentially lowering acceptance.
