           1. Definitions.
        
              "License" shall mean the terms and conditions for use, reproduction,
              and distribution as defined by Sections 1 through 9 of this document.
        
              "Licensor" shall mean the copyright owner or entity authorized by
              the copyright owner that is granting the License.
        
              "Legal Entity" shall mean the union of the acting entity and all
              other entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common
              control with that entity. For the purposes of this definition,
              "control" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the
              direction or management of such entity, whether by contract or
              otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the
              outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial ownership of such entity.
        
              "You" (or "Your") shall mean an individual or Legal Entity
              exercising permissions granted by this License.
        
              "Source" form shall mean the preferred form for making modifications,
              including but not limited to software source code, documentation
              source, and configuration files.
        
              "Object" form shall mean any form resulting from mechanical
              transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
              not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,
              and conversions to other media types.
        
              "Work" shall mean the work of authorship made available under
              the License, as indicated by a copyright notice that is included in
              or attached to the work (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
        
              "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
              form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
              editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
              represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
              of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
              separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
              the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
        
              "Contribution" shall mean, as submitted to the Licensor for inclusion
              in the Work by the copyright owner or by an individual or Legal Entity
              authorized to submit on behalf of the copyright owner. For the purposes
              of this definition, "submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal,
              or written communication sent to the Licensor or its representatives,
              including but not limited to communication on electronic mailing lists,
              source code control systems, and issue tracking systems that are managed
              by, or on behalf of, the Licensor for the purpose of developing the Work,
              but excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise
              designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."
        
              "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any Legal Entity on behalf of
              whom a Contribution has been received by the Licensor and included
              within the Work.
        
           2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
              this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
              worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
              copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
              publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
              Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
        
           3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
              this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
              worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
              (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
              use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,
              where such license applies only to those patent claims licensable
              by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
              Contribution(s) alone or by the combination of their Contribution(s)
              with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
              institute patent litigation against any entity (including a cross-claim
              or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work or any other
              Contribution embodied within the Work constitutes direct or contributory
              patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to You under
              this License for that Work shall terminate as of the date such
              litigation is filed.
        
           4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
              Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
              modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
              meet the following conditions:
        
              (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or Derivative
                  Works a copy of this License; and
        
              (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
                  stating that You changed the files; and
        
              (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
                  that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
                  attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
                  excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
                  the Derivative Works; and
        
              (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
                  distribution, You must include a readable copy of the
                  attribution notices contained within such NOTICE file, in
                  at least one of the following places: within a NOTICE text
                  file distributed as part of the Derivative Works; within
                  the Source form or documentation, if provided along with the
                  Derivative Works; or, within a display generated by the
                  Derivative Works, if and wherever such third-party notices
                  normally appear. The contents of the NOTICE file are for
                  informational purposes only and do not modify the License.
                  You may add Your own attribution notices within Derivative
                  Works that You distribute, alongside or in addition to the
                  NOTICE text from the Work, provided that such additional
                  attribution notices cannot be construed as modifying the
                  License.
        
              You may add Your own license statement for Your modifications and
              may provide additional grant of rights to use, copy, modify, merge,
              publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the
              Contribution, either on an unmodified basis, in conjunction with
              the accompanying documentation, or as a separate addendum to the
              NOTICE text from the Work.
        
           5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
              any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
              by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
              this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
              Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
              the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
              with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
        
           6. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
              names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
              except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
              origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
        
           7. Disclaimer of Warranty. Unless required by applicable law or
              agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
              Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
              WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
              implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
              of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
              PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
              appropriateness of using or reproducing the Work and assume any
              risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
        
           8. Limitation of Liability. In no event and under no legal theory,
              whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
              unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
              negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
              liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
              incidental, or exemplary damages of any character arising as a
              result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
              Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
              work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or all other
              commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor has been
              advised of the possibility of such damages.
        
           9. Accepting Warranty or Liability. While redistributing the Work or
              Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer, and charge a fee
              for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity, or other liability
              obligations and/or rights consistent with this License. However, in
              accepting such obligations, You may offer such conditions only on
              Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf of
              any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify, defend,
              and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability incurred by, or
              claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason of your accepting
              any such warranty or additional liability.
        
           END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
        
           APPENDIX: How to apply the Apache License to your work.
        
              To apply the Apache License to your work, attach the following
              boilerplate notice, with the fields enclosed by brackets "[]"
              replaced with your own identifying information. (Don't include

# Global Impact Tracker

Global Impact Tracker is a local-first CLI for proving the value of AI-assisted work. Log tasks, capture metrics, and generate interview-ready STAR stories — all from the command line, with no hosted backend required.

---

## Free CLI

### Install

```bash
pip install global-impact-tracker
```

### Log a task

```bash
impact-tracker log \
  --project "Payments API" \
  --task "Refactored auth middleware to remove legacy session token storage" \
  --baseline-hrs 4.0 \
  --ai-sec 420 \
  --status "Success" \
  --task-type refactor \
  --complexity high \
  --tools-used "claude|windsurf"
```

```
Logged run to: /Users/you/.impact_tracker/global_productivity.csv
```

### Capture metrics

```bash
impact-tracker metrics
```

```json
{
  "queries_processed": 12,
  "total_hours_saved": 18.4,
  "latency_reduction_pct": 91.2,
  "success_rate_pct": 100.0,
  "projects_count": 3,
  "system_health": "healthy"
}
```

### Generate the dashboard

```bash
impact-dashboard
```

Opens `live_impact_dashboard.html` in the current directory — a visual breakdown of projected vs. actual hours by project.

---

## MCP Server (free for a limited time)

The paid MCP server brings AI-powered STAR story generation, decisions capture, and richer reflection directly into your AI coding environment.

**It is currently free.** Request access and a license key will be emailed to you.

### Request access

[**Request a free MCP key →**](https://forms.gle/D3mVGqnsDdf18VaM8)

You will receive a license key (`gip-...`) and full installation instructions by email, typically within 24 hours.

### Install the MCP server

```bash
pip install global-impact-tracker-mcp
```

You will also need a Gemini API key (free tier is sufficient):

```bash
export GEMINI_API_KEY="your-gemini-key"
export IMPACT_TRACKER_LICENSE_KEY="gip-your-key-here"
```

### Configure your client

Pick the tab for your AI coding environment.

#### Claude Code

Add to `~/.claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "impact-tracker": {
      "command": "impact-tracker-mcp",
      "env": {
        "IMPACT_TRACKER_LICENSE_KEY": "gip-your-key-here",
        "GEMINI_API_KEY": "your-gemini-key"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Restart Claude Code, then confirm the server is running:

```
/mcp
```

#### Codex CLI

Add to `~/.codex/config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "impact-tracker": {
      "command": "impact-tracker-mcp",
      "env": {
        "IMPACT_TRACKER_LICENSE_KEY": "gip-your-key-here",
        "GEMINI_API_KEY": "your-gemini-key"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

#### Gemini CLI

Add to `~/.gemini/settings.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "impact-tracker": {
      "command": "impact-tracker-mcp",
      "env": {
        "IMPACT_TRACKER_LICENSE_KEY": "gip-your-key-here",
        "GEMINI_API_KEY": "your-gemini-key"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

#### Windsurf

Open **Settings → MCP Servers → Add Server** and enter:

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Name | `impact-tracker` |
| Command | `impact-tracker-mcp` |
| Env: `IMPACT_TRACKER_LICENSE_KEY` | `gip-your-key-here` |
| Env: `GEMINI_API_KEY` | `your-gemini-key` |

### Sample prompts

Once the MCP server is running, paste any of these into your AI client to get started:

```
Log a task: I refactored the auth middleware today, it would have taken me about 3 hours manually but only took 8 minutes with AI
```

```
Show me my impact dashboard
```

```
Generate a STAR story for my work on the payments project — I'm preparing for a senior engineer interview
```

```
Generate a cross-project STAR story covering all my recent AI-assisted work
```

```
What engineering decisions did I make this week?
```

```
How many hours have I saved this month across all projects?
```

---

## How it works

1. **Log tasks** as you complete them — baseline hours (what it would have taken manually) and actual AI-assisted seconds.
2. **Metrics are computed locally** from your CSV log at `~/.impact_tracker/global_productivity.csv`. No data leaves your machine on the free tier.
3. **STAR stories** (paid) are generated by Gemini using your real metrics and captured engineering decisions — grounded in actual numbers, never fabricated.

---

## Public package boundary

The public package contains:

- shared tracker logic and CSV-backed storage
- metrics generation and the dashboard HTML generator
- the placeholder entitlement verifier interface
- the `impact-tracker` and `impact-dashboard` CLI entry points

The public package does not ship the MCP server, internal key issuance tooling, or any real signing secret. Those live in the private `global-impact-tracker-mcp` companion repo.

---

## Environment variables

| Variable | Where | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| `IMPACT_TRACKER_LICENSE_KEY` | Customer | Activates Pro MCP features |
| `GEMINI_API_KEY` | Customer | Powers STAR story generation and decisions capture |
