- Change ANALYSIS_IQR_MULTIPLIER default from 1.5 to 1.0 in config.py
- Add iqr_multiplier parameter to all filtering & statistics functions
- Allow runtime override via MCP tools (get_valuation_comparables, get_deal_statistics)
- Update CLAUDE.md docs with new default & override examples
Rationale: k=1.0 catches more suspicious deals (e.g. 43% below median) while
still preserving legitimate edge cases via hard bounds. Users can override
per-call for more conservative filtering (k=1.5) if needed.

Implement configurable outlier detection and robust statistical measures to
improve analysis accuracy for real estate data. Addresses issues with data
entry errors, partial deals, and other anomalies that skew statistics.
Key Features:
- IQR-based outlier detection (moderate filtering by default, k=1.5)
- Hard bounds filtering for obvious errors (price_per_sqm, deal_amount)
- Robust volatility using IQR instead of std_dev for investment analysis
- Transparent reporting with both filtered and unfiltered statistics
Implementation:
- Add outlier_detection.py module with IQR/percent/hard bounds methods
- Add OutlierReport model and enhance DealStatistics with filtered fields
- Update calculate_deal_statistics() to support optional outlier filtering
- Update analyze_investment_potential() to use robust volatility
- Add 9 new configuration parameters for customization
- Add comprehensive test suite (24 tests) for outlier detection
- Update CLAUDE.md with usage documentation
Configuration (all via env vars):
- ANALYSIS_OUTLIER_METHOD=iqr (default, or percent/none)
- ANALYSIS_IQR_MULTIPLIER=1.5 (moderate, 3.0=conservative)
- ANALYSIS_PRICE_PER_SQM_MIN/MAX=1000/100000 (bounds in NIS/sqm)
- ANALYSIS_MIN_DEAL_AMOUNT=100000 (catches partial deals)
- ANALYSIS_USE_ROBUST_VOLATILITY=true (IQR-based CV)
- ANALYSIS_USE_ROBUST_TRENDS=true (filter before regression)
Testing:
- All existing tests pass (326 passed)
- 24 new comprehensive outlier detection tests
- Real-world scenario tests (partial deals, data errors)
Backward Compatible:
- Default behavior improves accuracy without breaking changes
- All new fields in models are optional
- Config parameters have sensible defaults
