Debt payoff calculator: snowball vs avalanche, minimum payment trap, extra-payment impact.
Overview
Lets an assistant run debt payoff math: snowball vs avalanche timelines, minimum-payment traps, and extra-payment impact.
- What you can do
- DebtFree provides calculator tools for debt payoff planning. calculate_debt_payoff builds a full payoff timeline using either the snowball or avalanche strategy, and compare_snowball_vs_avalanche puts both strategies side by side for the same set of debts. calculate_minimum_payment_trap shows the cost of paying only minimums on a credit card, calculate_extra_payment_impact models how much faster and cheaper payoff becomes with an added monthly amount, and get_app_info returns app metadata.
- When to use it
- Useful when someone asks how long it will take to clear credit card or loan balances, which payoff order to choose, or what an extra monthly payment would save. It fits educational what-if questions about consumer debt rather than personalized financial planning.
- Requirements
- Runs locally as an npm package (debtfree-mcp-server) over stdio, typically launched with npx from a desktop MCP client configuration. No account, API key, or environment variable is declared.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Debtfree in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
Other MCP clients
Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

What it does
Installation
Usage with Claude Desktop
Add to claude_desktop_config.json:
Example interactions
- "I have $8,000 on a credit card at 24% APR with a $200 minimum payment. How long until it's paid off?"
- "I have three credit cards: $5k at 22%, $3k at 19%, $1k at 15%. Should I use snowball or avalanche?"
- "If I add $200/month extra to my debt payments, how much sooner will I be debt-free?"
- "What's DebtFree and how does it compare to spreadsheets?"
About DebtFree
