- **get_customer_details** — Full profile for one customer by id or name.
- **get_mrr_at_risk** — Total MRR at risk plus active-alert counts by risk level.
- **get_active_alerts** — Active alerts by priority, with risk factors and outreach state.
- **get_churn_metrics** — Churn rate, MRR churned, expansion/contraction, net revenue retention.
- **mark_alert_contacted** — Mark an alert as contacted.
- **archive_alert** — Archive a resolved alert.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Install path detected from listing signals. Uses `npx` (confidence: high):

```json

## Documentation & README

# Retain MCP Server

Let your AI agent see who is about to churn, and do something about it.

`@retain-so/mcp-server` connects [Retain](https://retain.so) to any MCP client (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and friends). Ask in natural language which customers are at risk, pull a customer's full health profile, check MRR at risk, and log outreach, all without opening the dashboard.

Retain is an AI-first churn prevention and customer analytics platform. This server is the bridge between your agent and your Retain data.

## What you can ask your agent to do

Read:

- "Which customers are at critical risk this week?"
- "Show me my high-risk customers ordered by MRR."
- "What's my total MRR at risk, broken down by risk level?"
- "Pull the full profile for Acme Inc."
- "List the active alerts I haven't contacted yet."
- "Summarize this month's churn metrics and net revenue retention."

Act (needs a read+write key):

- "Mark the alert for Globex as contacted."
- "Archive the resolved alert for Initech."

## Setup (under 5 minutes)

1. In Retain, go to **Settings → Agent keys** and create a key. Pick **read** for query-only, or **read & write** to let the agent take actions. Copy it (it is shown once).
2. Add the snippet for your client below.
3. Restart the client and ask your first question.

## Example conversation

> **You:** Who's about to churn and how much money is on the line?
>
> **Agent:** _(calls `get_mrr_at_risk`, then `get_at_risk_customers`)_ You have $4,200 MRR at risk across 7 active alerts. The two biggest are Acme Inc ($900, critical, 18 days inactive) and Globex ($650, high).
>
> **You:** I emailed Acme today, mark their alert as contacted.
>
> **Agent:** _(calls `mark_alert_contacted`)_ Done. Acme's alert is now marked as contacted.

npm run dev        # run from source with tsx
npm run build      # bundle to dist/
npm run typecheck
```

The server holds no business logic and no database. It only translates MCP tool calls into HTTP requests against Retain's public `/agent/*` API. Contributions and new tools are welcome.
