# Review project estimates with MCP

Bring project identity and saved financial estimates together in an external AI client. Matching records by project ID avoids relying on names that may be duplicated or changed.

Show saved project estimates by cost category, linked to project names and numbers. Keep missing estimates distinct from zero, and state which projects the result covers.

## When to use it

Prepare an estimate review using your authorized Millbase MCP connection.

## What you need

Access to projects with operations:read and project-estimates with financials:read.

## What you’ll get

- Project names and numbers with available cost-category estimates.

- Missing values and coverage limitations called out explicitly.

## How to use it

Open the prompt in Millbase, sign up or sign in if needed, then review the editable draft before sending.

Saved estimates are planned costs. Do not label them as actual spending or revenue.

## MCP version

Connect Millbase MCP in your compatible client: https://millbase.ca/docs/mcp

Use Millbase MCP. Discover fields with list_resources, then query_data for projects and project-estimates if authorized. Follow pagination and join by project id. Show labor, materials, delivery, installation, and other saved estimates by project. Keep null values distinct from zero and report unavailable scopes. These are estimates, not actual costs.
