## Description
Your own network — goals, commitments and interaction history — read-only, from your assistant.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "tend": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","tend"]
  }
}
```

## Documentation & README

# Tend — MCP connector

Read-only access to your own [Tend](https://www.tendladder.com/?src=mcp-repo)
record — goals, contacts, commitments and interaction history — so your
assistant can answer from your network instead of guessing.

```
https://www.tendladder.com/api/mcp
```

Streamable HTTP · OAuth 2.1 · read-only · requires a Tend account (the free plan
includes the connector).

> This repository is the connector's documentation and its registry manifest.
> The server itself is hosted — there is nothing here to install or run.

## What it is for

Tend is goal-coupled relationship management: your network organized around what
you are trying to achieve, rather than a contact list on a reminder timer.

The connector exists because the useful question is usually asked somewhere Tend
has no app — in the middle of a conversation with your assistant, on a phone, in
a thread about a job you are trying to fill. It answers from your own record,
and it never spends your Tend allowance: the reasoning runs on your assistant's
plan, not ours.

## Connecting

**One click:** [**Add Tend to Claude**](https://claude.ai/customize/connectors?modal=add-custom-connector&connectorName=Tend&connectorUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tendladder.com%2Fapi%2Fmcp)
— this opens Claude's Add connector dialog with the name and URL already filled
in. Review them, confirm, then click **Allow** on the consent screen, which
appears on `tendladder.com` rather than a third-party login. That is the whole
setup: no token to paste, no config file to edit.

The link only prefills the form. It grants nothing until you confirm.

**By hand,** if you would rather: in Claude, Settings → Connectors → Add custom
connector, and paste `https://www.tendladder.com/api/mcp`.

**Claude Code:** `claude mcp add --transport http tend https://www.tendladder.com/api/mcp`

Verified on Claude desktop, web and mobile. Other MCP clients speak the same
protocol and are expected to work, but only Claude is tested — ChatGPT requires
Developer mode, and Gemini currently has no consumer path for remote MCP
servers.

Every connected client is listed in Tend's settings with its own **Revoke**.

## What to ask

The connector tells your assistant the questions it answers best, so asking
*"what can I do with Tend?"* returns a useful list on the first try. These are
the six it names:

| Ask | What it does |
|---|---|
| *What do I owe people this week?* | Your open commitments, the ones **you** promised |
| *What am I waiting on?* | The other direction — what others owe you |
| *Who should I contact today, and why that person?* | Ranked, with the reason attached |
| *Which of my goals is stalling?* | The goal that has stopped moving, and why |
| *Brief me on Dana before I speak to her.* | Everything on one person, in reading order |
| *Here is a job spec — who in my network is relevant?* | Paste anything; it matches against your network |

That last one is the one Tend's own app cannot do, because it cannot see what is
in front of you and your assistant can.

## Tools

Seven, all read-only.

| Tool | Returns |
|---|---|
| `list_goals` | Your goals and their state |
| `get_goal_next_moves` | The next moves on a goal, with the audit's own reasoning and its age |
| `list_commitments` | Open commitments, each carrying a direction — `mine` or `theirs` |
| `search_contacts` | Contacts matching a query, ranked |
| `get_contact` | One person in full |
| `search_activities` | Interaction history |
| `list_reminders` | What is scheduled |

Rows carry deep links back into Tend, so anything your assistant creates
elsewhere stays traceable to why it mattered.

**Read-only is a hard boundary, not a first version's limitation.** No tool
creates, edits, sends or deletes. The worst outcome of a confused agent is a
wrong answer, never a changed record — which is the property that made shipping
this early defensible in the first place.

## Privacy

- Your data is single-tenant and encrypted. It is never sold and never used to
  train models.
- Tenancy is resolved from your OAuth session, never from anything the model
  says — the server cannot be talked into reading someone else's record.
- Full policy: <https://www.tendladder.com/privacy>

## Registry
