Ada Lovelace Algorithmic Prover MCP Connector for Claude
A+Your AI said 'process the data' and called it an algorithm. That is not an algorithm — that is a wish. No step sequence, no edge cases, no scope limits. Ada Lovelace wrote the first published algorithm — Note G, 1843 — specifying every operation: V4 = V4 × V5, V6 = V6 − V4. This tool forces step sequencing, abstraction extraction, edge case analysis, operation decomposition, and honest scope bounding.
AI agents describe outcomes and call them procedures. 'Process the data,' 'handle the request,' 'integrate the service.' No step sequence. No edge cases. No scope limits.
The Problem
- Sequence Absent — 'Process the data and return the result.' In what ORDER? With what INPUTS at each step? Ada's Note G: 'V4 = V4 × V5', 'V6 = V6 − V4' — exact operations, exact order, exact variables.
- Abstraction Missing — Solving one instance without seeing the pattern. Ada saw that Babbage's Engine could manipulate SYMBOLS — not just numbers. Music, algebra, logic. What is the GENERAL pattern?
- Edge Cases Ignored — 'Assuming valid input.' Ada defined iteration termination in Note G. What happens with EMPTY input? MALFORMED data? Can the process LOOP FOREVER?
- Operations Undefined — 'The system handles it.' That is a black box. Ada decomposed into primitives: multiply, subtract, store, compare.
- Scope Overclaimed — 'Handles everything.' Ada: 'The Engine has no pretensions whatever to originate anything.' She stated what it CANNOT do.
How It Works
- stepSequenced — Operations in precise, executable order.
- abstractionExtracted — General pattern beyond the specific case.
- edgeCaseAnalyzed — Boundary conditions and failure inputs examined.
- operationsDecomposed — High-level ops broken into primitives.
- scopeBounded — Capabilities AND limitations explicitly stated.
Verdict Matrix
| Pivot | Verdict | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| stepSequenced = false | SEQUENCE_ABSENT | Outcomes described, not steps. |
| abstractionExtracted = false | ABSTRACTION_MISSING | Solved one case, missed the pattern. |
| edgeCaseAnalyzed = false | EDGE_CASES_IGNORED | Happy path only. |
| operationsDecomposed = false | OPERATIONS_UNDEFINED | Black-box operations. |
| scopeBounded = false | SCOPE_OVERCLAIMED | Claims without limits. |
| All pass | ALGORITHM_PROVEN | Precise. Abstract. Bounded. |

Pitch Deck Prover MCP
An AI built a pitch deck that claimed a '$4.2B TAM' with no source, described the problem as 'everyone struggles with this,' showed '15K downloads' as traction with 3% D30 retention, and asked for 'funding to accelerate growth' — no amount, no use of funds, no milestones. The deck got rejected in 8 minutes. This tool forces problem validation with evidence, sourced market sizing, defined unit economics, retention-based traction, and a specific fundraising ask.
