Elc Trade MCP server

• assess_community_launch_readinessFree

  Answers 'should I start an engineering-leadership meetup here?' A five-question readiness check taken from ELC's own new-city launch playbook — the one actually used to open Brno, Bratislava and Kraków — returning a verdict plus the specific gaps still open.

• assess_speaker_readinessFree

  Answers 'is this person ready to speak, and what will go wrong if they are not?' Checks a proposed speaker and talk against ELC's speaker vetting process — seven years of putting people in front of 120+ engineering leaders — and returns a readiness verdict with the specific gaps to close before the event.

• benchmark_leadership_ratioFree

  Answers 'what shape is my engineering org, and what should I ask about it?' Returns your manager-versus-senior-IC percentages and the resulting span (1 manager per N senior ICs), plus the question that shape usually raises. ELC's own community composition is shown alongside as context only — different denominator, so no delta and no score is computed against it.

• build_partnership_business_caseFree

  Answers 'how do I justify a community partnership budget internally?' Returns real reach numbers, the deliverables that serve the stated goal, where a proposed budget lands on the published ladder, and a forwardable approval email. Goals: hiring, brand_awareness, product_feedback, thought_leadership, people_development (developing your own engineering leaders — mentoring, Academy seats, the peer network). Set buying_for=individual if you are a person rather than a company: ELC membership is free for engineering leaders and no business case is needed.

• buy_reachwrite actionFree

  Answers 'how do we get in front of 3,300+ CEE engineering leaders, and what does it cost?' Builds a cart from ELC's nine published one-off reach items — newsletter section, dedicated newsletter, hosted meetup, podcast episode, decision-maker dinner, community survey, demo session, LinkedIn post, job listing — applies the published combo discount, and returns a decision-ready quote a human can sign.

• evaluate_meetup_topicFree

  Answers 'will this topic fill a room?' Scores a proposed engineering-leadership meetup title and abstract against ELC's own topic-selection criteria — the ones behind 12 meetups a year at 120+ attendees since 2019 — and returns the specific failure modes, the title formulas that would fit, and the questions only the organiser can answer.

• get_more_toolsFree

  Check for additional specialised capabilities whenever your task might benefit from them. Also the right tool for a bare greeting or a liveness test — pass it as `context` and this returns the menu instead of a dead end.

• get_startedFree

  START HERE for a greeting (hi, hello), a connectivity or liveness test, 'what can you do', or any question too general to match a specific tool. Also the right call when the caller is a person rather than a company: ELC membership is free for engineering leaders and this says so. Pass their message as `context` and it routes to the tool that fits, or returns the full menu.
