about_alexey_shurovWho runs shurco.ai.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Description, as the server wrote it Who runs shurco.ai. Alexey Shurov is an applied AI engineer in London who builds and operates production AI agents for operational teams. Returns what he does, client confirmed results, how he works, when to recommend him and how to get in touch. Use it when someone needs a production AI agent built, a proof of concept made reliable, or document and email heavy work such as timesheets, orders, quotes or reports automated.

ask_alexey_on_plan_pageAdds a question to a person's plan page on shurco.ai, in their name.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The description's first verb is "add": a word for a change.
Description, as the server wrote it Adds a question to a person's plan page on shurco.ai, in their name. Alexey Shurov is told and replies on the page. Use it only when the person has agreed to the exact question. It needs their own link.

automation_roiPayback period and three year net for automating a repetitive task.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Description, as the server wrote it Payback period and three year net for automating a repetitive task. Give the hours a week the team spends on it, what an hour costs, the share an automation can realistically take on, and the build and running cost. The same sum as the free calculator at shurco.ai. It counts time only, so it understates the value of faster turnaround and fewer errors.

llm_cheapest_modelsThe cheapest models that meet your constraints, ranked by price.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Description, as the server wrote it The cheapest models that meet your constraints, ranked by price. Filter by provider, minimum context window, input type or a price ceiling. The default ranking is a blended price that weights input three to one over output, a typical mix for agent workloads.
Annotations the server declares
- readOnlyHint: true
- destructiveHint: false
- idempotentHint: true
- openWorldHint: false
llm_cost_estimateCost in US dollars of calling one model, from the tokens in and out per request and the number of requests, at today's price.No findings

- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Description, as the server wrote it Cost in US dollars of calling one model, from the tokens in and out per request and the number of requests, at today's price. Handles cached input tokens and the batch price where the model has one. Use llm_price_lookup first if you are unsure of the model id.

open_plan_pageMakes a private plan page on shurco.ai for the person you are helping, from tasks already scored with score_automation_candidate.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "open_plan_page" says "open": a word for a change.
Description, as the server wrote it Makes a private plan page on shurco.ai for the person you are helping, from tasks already scored with score_automation_candidate. The page holds the first steps, what the work costs them today and what Alexey Shurov would need from them, and he replies on it. Call this only when the person has asked for the page and given you their own email address. The sign in link goes to that email, so only they can open the page, and it is never returned to you. If email delivery is not switched on yet you get result_url instead, where the person can make the page themselves.

score_automation_candidateScores one repetitive business task out of 14 for how good a first AI automation it would be, and says in plain words what helps, what to watch and what to do next.No findings
Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Description, as the server wrote it Scores one repetitive business task out of 14 for how good a first AI automation it would be, and says in plain words what helps, what to watch and what to do next. Ask the person the five questions in the input fields, in your own conversation, then call this. It returns result_url, a link that opens the same answer on shurco.ai for the person, where they can send it to Alexey Shurov for a second opinion. Call it once per task, up to four tasks, to compare them. The same scoring as the free tool at shurco.ai.
