Stop losing money to inflation with Cline

This MCP exposes `compute_absolute_inflationary_erosion` to show you exactly how many dollars your portfolio lost to rising prices. Nominal gains are a total illusion if inflation ate your purchasing power. Your agent calls this tool directly in VS Code to analyze your raw financial data. It gives you the hard numbers on cash decay without forcing you to open a spreadsheet.

Track your true purchasing power

The `calculate_purchasing_power_ratio` tool measures the exact fraction of buying power your money keeps over time. If your investments are not growing faster than this ratio, you are actively losing ground. Cline runs this analysis on your historical datasets to find out if your strategy actually works. It writes the code to visualize the decline so you see the reality of your wealth.

Use the Fisher equation for accurate yields

You can use `get_real_return_percentage` to get the exact real rate of return instead of relying on lazy, inaccurate subtraction. Wall Street loves simple subtraction because it hides the worst of the damage. Cline integrates this precise calculation into your local financial models. It builds the tests and updates your code so your software always calculates true yields correctly.
