About Scientific Calculator

An MCP scientific calculator for users and AI assistants that need checked calculations. Its tools return numeric or symbolic results with the formula or method used, across math, physics, chemistry, and India-focused finance.

Key features

  1. 01Arithmetic, algebra, and statistics
  2. 02Calculus, matrix, and vector operations
  3. 03Geometry and unit conversion
  4. 04Physics and electrical engineering calculations
  5. 05Chemistry calculations and element lookup
  6. 06India-focused finance and programmer utilities

Use cases

  1. 01Solve equations with the method shown
  2. 02Calculate loan EMI or SIP
  3. 03Perform integration, unit, or chemistry calculations

MCP support

This remote MCP server provides calculation tools over Streamable HTTP, returning numeric or symbolic results with the formula or method used. It accepts validated inputs and supports OAuth 2.1.

Configuration

Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Scientific Calculator

A checked calculator the model must call instead of doing the maths itself. Each tool takes validated inputs and returns a numeric or symbolic result plus the formula or method that produced it — school arithmetic, algebra, calculus, matrices, units, physics, chemistry, electrical engineering, programmer conversions, and India-shaped finance (EMI, SIP, GST).

Install

VS Code / GitHub Copilot

Add to .vscode/mcp.json (workspace) or your user mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "saifs-scientific-calculator": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://scientific-calculator-mcp.saifs.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Then start the server from the MCP view and sign in when prompted.

Any other MCP client

Point it at https://scientific-calculator-mcp.saifs.ai/mcp using the Streamable HTTP transport. The server returns 401 with a WWW-Authenticate: Bearer … resource_metadata=… challenge, so OAuth-aware clients sign in automatically.

Tools

Named handlers cover these domains (symbolic work via SymPy; finance, physics and chemistry return the closed-form formula with the number):

Geometry2D shapes, 3D solids, surface area and volume
AlgebraLinear, quadratic, cubic and polynomial roots, systems, inequalities, factor, expand, GCD/LCM
StatisticsMean, variance, percentiles, combinations, binomial and normal probability
CalculusDerivatives, integrals, limits, Taylor series, critical points, Simpson / trapezoidal quadrature
Matrix & vectorInverse, determinant, eigenvalues, rank, dot and cross product
UnitsLength, weight, area, volume, temperature, time, speed, pressure, energy, power
Physics & electricalKinematics, F = ma, Ohm’s law, work, energy, waves, resistors, AC reactance
Finance (India-shaped)Simple / compound interest, EMI, SIP, GST, CAGR, profit/loss
ChemistryMolar mass, moles, molarity, dilution, pH, ideal gas law, periodic table (Z = 1–118)
Programmer & datesBase convert, bitwise, ASCII, date difference, age, leap year

Example prompts

  • “Solve 2x² − 5x − 3 = 0 and show the quadratic formula.”
  • “What is the EMI on a ₹12,00,000 home loan at 8.5% for 20 years?”
  • “Differentiate sin(x²) and then evaluate the definite integral of x² from 0 to 3 with Simpson’s rule.”

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
