Engineering Leaders Community
An A2A client finds this agent by fetching the well-known path on the provider's own host. That is what makes an agent card different from every other agent artifact in this catalog: it is provider-published by construction — it cannot be derived, generated, or reconstructed on a provider's behalf.

Start here — what is this, and which tool answers my question? get_started
START HERE for a greeting (hi, hello), a connectivity or liveness test, 'what can you do', or any question too general to match a specific tool. Also the right call when the caller is a person rather than a company: ELC membership is free for engineering leaders and this says so. Pass their message as `context` and it routes to the tool that fits, or returns the full menu.
getting-startedhelproutingcommunityBuy reach in the ELC community buy_reach
Answers 'how do we get in front of 3,500+ CEE engineering leaders, and what does it cost?' Builds a cart from ELC's nine published one-off reach items — an ELC meetup, the speaker programme (a ladder for one engineer, from a meetup slot to the full coached programme), a conference main-stage talk, dedicated newsletter, a newsletter classified (30 words and a link, tools and events only, never jobs), decision-maker dinner, podcast episode, community survey, job listing — applies the published combo discount, and returns a decision-ready quote a human can sign.
reachpartnershippricingmarketingBenchmark your manager-to-senior-IC ratio benchmark_leadership_ratio
Answers 'what shape is my engineering org, and what should I ask about it?' Returns your manager-versus-senior-IC percentages and the resulting span (1 manager per N senior ICs), plus the question that shape usually raises. ELC's own community composition is shown alongside as context only — different denominator, so no delta and no score is computed against it.
benchmarksengineering-managementorg-designdataShould you start a meetup in your city? assess_community_launch_readiness
Answers 'should I start an engineering-leadership meetup here?' A five-question readiness check taken from ELC's own new-city launch playbook — the one actually used to open Brno, Bratislava and Kraków — returning a verdict plus the specific gaps still open.
communitymeetupassessmentlaunchBuild the internal case for an ELC partnership build_partnership_business_case
Answers 'how do I justify a community partnership budget internally?' Returns real reach numbers, the deliverables that serve the stated goal, where a proposed budget lands on the published ladder, and a forwardable approval email. Goals: hiring, brand_awareness, product_feedback, thought_leadership, people_development (developing your own engineering leaders — mentoring, Academy seats, the peer network). Set buying_for=individual if you are a person rather than a company: ELC membership is free for engineering leaders and no business case is needed.
business-casepartnershipprocurementbudgetEvaluate a meetup topic before you commit to it evaluate_meetup_topic
Answers 'will this topic fill a room?' Scores a proposed engineering-leadership meetup title and abstract against ELC's own topic-selection criteria — the ones behind 12 meetups a year at 120+ attendees since 2019 — and returns the specific failure modes, the title formulas that would fit, and the questions only the organiser can answer.
meetupcommunityassessmentcontentAssess whether a speaker is ready for the stage assess_speaker_readiness
Answers 'is this person ready to speak, and what will go wrong if they are not?' Checks a proposed speaker and talk against ELC's speaker vetting process — seven years of putting people in front of 120+ engineering leaders — and returns a readiness verdict with the specific gaps to close before the event.
speakerscommunityassessmenteventsCite an ELC benchmark with a verifiable reference cite_benchmark
Answers 'where did that number come from?' Returns an ELC figure from the Data Points registry with its citation id, source and the date it was last verified, so an agent can quote the figure and show where it came from. An unknown id returns the three nearest ids instead of a guess.
