Pro Tips for Claude MCP

Maximizing AI tool execution

  • Conversational GST Calculations Say: 'Calculate 18% GST on Rs. 45,000 for a client in Karnataka while I am in Delhi'. Claude calls calculate_gst with correct IGST automatically.
  • Automated GSTIN Validation Say: 'Verify if 27AAPCS1234A1Z5 is a valid GST number'. Claude executes the Mod-36 checksum validator directly.
  • Financial Modeling & Amortization Ask Claude: 'Model my working capital and loan EMI for a 15 Lakh expansion at 11% interest'. It chains the loan EMI and working capital tools.
  • Inspect MCP Server Logs If tools don't appear in Claude Desktop, check %APPDATA%\Claude\logs\mcp*.log to troubleshoot path or virtual environment errors.
