io.github.theluckystrikePublished by GitHub account theluckystrikev0.22.5Updated Oct 24, 2026
Freelance hourly-rate calculator with break-even and what-if scenarios.
The publisher's own server: Calculator Tools MCP
Overview
A local MCP server that calculates the minimum freelance hourly rate needed to reach a target after-tax income, plus break-even and what-if comparisons.
- What you can do
- Calculate the minimum hourly rate from target income, business expenses, billable hours, working weeks and tax rate on profit. Compute a break-even rate that covers expenses only. Compare 2 to 12 scenarios side by side, ordered highest rate first.
- When to use it
- Useful when a freelancer or consultant wants to set or sanity-check hourly pricing against a desired annual after-tax income, or compare several pricing scenarios before quoting.
- Requirements
- Runs as a local process on the user's machine, started with Node.js (node servers/hourly-rate/src/index.js), or installed from a one-click bundle. No accounts, API keys, environment variables or network access are needed.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Freelance Rate Calculator 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.
