DoWhy MCP v2.0 - Rigorous Causal Inference Tools

Python 3.9+ DoWhy License: MIT Code style: black

🎯 Project Vision

DoWhy MCP v2.0 is a complete rewrite of the DoWhy MCP server, designed to provide rigorous, theoretically-grounded causal inference tools through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This version matches the scientific rigor and theoretical depth of the official DoWhy library.

🔬 Theoretical Foundation

Built on the solid theoretical foundations of:

Structural Causal Models (SCM) - Pearl's causal hierarchy
Graphical Causal Models (GCM) - Modern causal discovery and inference
Potential Outcomes Framework - Rubin's causal model
Do-Calculus - Formal causal reasoning

🚀 Key Features

✅ What's New in v2.0

🧮 Rigorous Statistical Inference: True Bootstrap confidence intervals, not noise simulation
🔍 Comprehensive Sensitivity Analysis: Full suite of refutation tests and E-value analysis
📊 Complete Causal Toolkit: 42 specialized tools covering all DoWhy functionality
🎯 Theoretical Rigor: Every method backed by solid causal inference theory
⚡ Performance Optimized: Efficient implementation with proper error handling
📈 Advanced Visualization: Causal graphs, attribution plots, and diagnostic charts

📋 Installation

# Install from source (development)
git clone https://github.com/dowhy-mcp/dowhy-mcp-v2.git
cd dowhy-mcp-v2
pip install -e ".[dev]"

# Install from PyPI (when released)
pip install dowhy-mcp-v2

🔧 Quick Start

from dowhy_mcp_v2 import DoWhyCausalAnalyzer

# Initialize analyzer
analyzer = DoWhyCausalAnalyzer()

# Estimate causal effect with full rigor
result = analyzer.estimate_causal_effect(
    data="data.csv",
    treatment="intervention",
    outcome="result",
    confounders=["age", "gender", "income"],
    method="doubly_robust",
    bootstrap_samples=1000,
    sensitivity_analysis=True
)

# Get comprehensive results
print(f"Causal Effect: {result.causal_effect:.4f}")
print(f"95% CI: [{result.confidence_interval[0]:.4f}, {result.confidence_interval[1]:.4f}]")
print(f"P-value: {result.p_value:.4f}")
print(f"Robustness Score: {result.robustness_score:.2f}")
