## Description

You can stop manually checking expiration dates for warranties or guessing when you can safely shred old tax receipts. This MCP turns your AI client into a specialized document controller. It processes your purchase history against the specific rules you define, such as tax laws or manufacturer warranty lengths. 

Instead of digging through folders, you can ask your agent to find out exactly when a specific item's documentation becomes obsolete. It maps individual receipts to the goods they cover, ensuring you have the right proof for every asset. If a required document is missing from your records, the MCP flags the gap and tells you how to fix it. It handles the math of retention constraints, finding the latest expiration date across all applicable rules to give you a single, safe date for disposal. It's about moving from a pile of papers to a structured, actionable schedule.
