A self-contained MCP server that lets UK contractors paste a contract and get a defensible IR35 risk assessment. It analyses substitution, mutuality of obligation, and control against HMRC’s Employment Status Manual and the relevant case law (Ready Mixed Concrete, Autoclenz, Pimlico Plumbers, PGMOL, Atholl House, and others).
All reference data is baked in — no third-party API calls. Rich UI widgets are built on the MCP ext-apps protocol.

Not legal advice. IR35 status is fact-specific and depends on contract terms and working practices. For binding determinations, consult a qualified tax adviser or solicitor.
