# Client Status Report Generator — MCP tool `findutils:client_status_report_generator`

Generate a client-facing project status report in Markdown and return it with its headline counts. Sections: header (client, period, report type, generated date), timeline status, budget spent vs total, an executive summary, completed work, in-progress items with percent complete, active blockers with severity, upcoming goals, and notes. Empty sections are omitted, exactly as the page's export does.
