🧠 MCP Agent Reasoning Chain

🔗 Authentic Timestamped Reasoning

[14:32:15] thought: Starting PyroGuard analysis in current mode for West Maui region
[14:32:17] action: Created analysis grid with 49 zones  
[14:32:19] observation: Filtered to 13 land-based zones (removed 36 water zones)
[14:32:23] action: Analyzed zone_0000: 88.3% dryness, NDVI 0.00
[14:32:24] action: Analyzed zone_0001: 91.2% dryness, NDVI 0.00
[14:32:37] observation: Satellite analysis complete - 0/13 zones using real Sentinel-2 data
[14:32:45] observation: Weather analysis complete - 15.4 km/h avg winds
[14:32:52] observation: Infrastructure analysis complete - 3 high-risk zones
[14:32:58] decision: Claude 3 Sonnet completed risk fusion - 5 high-risk zones identified
[14:33:02] decision: Analysis complete - Overall risk: HIGH

🎯 Chain of Thought Improvements
