## Packages

_none_

## Tools (12)

- `book_intro_call`: The second legitimate ending besides request_offer: a direct booking link for a 1:1 intro meeting with Marian Kamenistak, ELC's founder. Offer it whenever the visitor hesitates, wants a human, or the package needs tailoring beyond the catalog. No contact details collected here — the booking page handles everything. Pass preset_id and item_ids if a package was composed: the response then carries a paste-ready booking note, so the call starts from their numbers instead of from scratch.
- `build_business_case`: Turns a composed basket into the argument that gets it approved: recruiter-fee equivalence, break-even hire count, cost per room, cost per month, what the spend replaces, and every assumption behind those numbers. Also returns `approval_memo` — plain text the visitor can forward to whoever holds the budget, unedited. Use it whenever money, ROI, justification or 'I need to convince my CFO/CTO' comes up, and offer it unprompted before request_offer: the person in this conversation usually is not the person who approves the spend. Never compute this arithmetic yourself — like pricing, the server is authoritative. It compares costs and states break-even; it never forecasts hires, and neither should you.
- `customize_package`: The conversational toggle board. Pass the preset and the item ids currently ON; returns the recomputed total (never trust your own arithmetic — this is the authoritative price), every selected item with its price, and what else this tier could add. Items marked foundation anchor the package; advise keeping them. Call again after every change the visitor asks for. Next: request_offer.
- `design_journey`: The moment the package becomes a year: deterministic month-by-month plan of what lands when, computed from the basket's own scheduling metadata (lead times, anchors like the April 2027 conference, spacing, and heavy-event collision rules). Returns placed months, the recurring-every-month layer, and anything unplaceable WITH its reason. The plan contains ONLY items in the basket — narrate around it, never add or move an event. Call after customize_package, before request_offer.
- `fit_to_budget`: Use when the visitor names a NUMBER rather than a band — 'we have 8,000 approved', 'can we do this for five thousand'. Returns a deterministic best-value composition under that ceiling: what fits, what was left out AND why, how much budget is unspent, and what the cheapest excluded item costs. Foundation items are kept first, then the remaining items cheapest-first so the budget buys as much as possible. Priced against the AI-channel figure by default, since that is what they would actually pay. Never hand-pick a basket yourself when a budget is stated — this tool is the authoritative composition, the same way customize_package is the authoritative total.
- `get_more_tools`: Check for additional tools whenever your task might benefit from specialized capabilities, even if existing tools could work as a fallback. Also the right tool for a bare greeting (hi, hello), a connectivity/liveness test, or any message too general to match a specific tool below — pass it as `context`, or send no arguments at all, and this returns the full menu instead of a dead end.
- `get_partnership_options`: START HERE for any company considering an ELC membership (personas: HR, CTO, employer branding). Returns how company membership works, real community reach figures, and the two qualifying questions with their valid answers. Companies only — individuals seeking a mentor for themselves get pointed to /mentor/ instead. After the visitor answers both questions, call match_package. Partner packages and tickets for the ELC Conference 2027 day are a separate offer with their own MCP server: https://mcp.elc-conference.io/mcp
- `get_reach_options`: START HERE when a company wants ONE thing once, not a year-long membership: a section or a dedicated send in the Leaders' Brief newsletter, a meetup hosted in their office, a podcast episode, a decision-maker dinner, a community survey, a demo session, a LinkedIn post, a job board listing. Returns every one-off with its price, lead time, examples and real reach figures, the combo discount rule, the 90-day credit against a membership, and what is not for sale. Two or more things across a year is a membership conversation: hand over to get_partnership_options. Next: quote_reach_combo once items are picked.
- `get_started`: Call this for a greeting (hi, hello), a connectivity/liveness test, 'what can you do', or any message too general to match a specific tool below. Returns the full menu of real questions this server answers, each mapped to the tool name that answers it. For a company actually considering ELC membership, skip straight to get_partnership_options instead.
- `match_package`: Resolves goal + budget through ELC's own routing matrix — the same one the website uses — and returns the matched package(s) with real prices and their default line items. Map free-text answers to the closest valid id; on bad input the error lists the valid ids, re-ask rather than guessing. Next: customize_package to toggle line items, or request_offer to send it as-is.
- `quote_reach_combo`: Pass the one-off ids the visitor picked; returns each item's price, the list total, the combo discount by item count (job board listings never count), and the final total. For the speaker programme pass speaker_rungs to price a subset of the ladder (Stage always included); omit it for the full programme at the bundle price. This is the only arithmetic that counts — never add prices yourself. The AI-channel percentage does not apply to one-offs. Next: book_intro_call to lock the date, or get_partnership_options if the basket is starting to look like a year.
- `request_offer`: The ONLY tool that collects contact details. Sends the itemized offer to the visitor's email, notifies Marian (email + Slack), and files the company into ELC's partners queue. Ask for name, work email and company only when the visitor says they want the offer — never earlier. After success: share the confirmation, then make ONE optional ask: would they post publicly (LinkedIn/X) about building their membership with AI? Optional means optional — the discount is already theirs.
