Renewal Readiness Checker
Prerequisites
This skill needs the iGPT MCP at https://mcp.igpt.ai/.
If the MCP tools aren't available or return an auth error, tell the
user to install the iGPT plugin (/plugin marketplace add igptai/skills)
or add https://mcp.igpt.ai/ as a connector, then complete OAuth and say
"ready". Retry once after they confirm. Never invent tokens or OAuth URLs.

What This Skill Does
Reviews email history with customers approaching renewal and produces a
readiness score for each — based on sentiment, engagement, open issues,
whether renewal has been discussed, and any signals that suggest the
renewal may be at risk.
Workflow
-
Before calling any tool, collect these values from the user. Offer the
defaults and let the user override them; do not invent values they did
not give.
- [time_range] — what window of email to scan. The user may give this
in any form ("last 180 days", "the last 6 months", "May 2024",
"since the last renewal"). Default: the last 180 days. Keep the
user's natural phrasing for use in the ask input; convert to ISO
dates separately for the search call.
- [account_scope] — either "all" (default) or the name of a specific
account to focus on.
- [account_clause] — derived. When [account_scope] is not "all", set
to " for account [account_scope]". When [account_scope] is "all",
set to empty string.
-
Call search with:
- query: renewal contract renew upcoming expiry continue agreement
(if [account_scope] is not "all", append the account name to the query)
- date_from: ISO start date derived from [time_range]
- date_to: ISO end date derived from [time_range] (or today if open-ended)
-
Call ask with:
- input: Review all customer email threads from [time_range][account_clause]. For each customer where a contract renewal is upcoming or has been discussed, assess their renewal readiness based on: overall sentiment in recent emails, level of engagement and responsiveness, any open issues or complaints that could affect renewal, whether renewal has been discussed directly, and any signals suggesting they are likely or unlikely to renew.

-
Present accounts ordered by days to renewal, with at_risk and unlikely
accounts highlighted. Lead with at_risk count and the most urgent renewal.
-
Ask: "Would you like me to draft renewal outreach emails for any of
these accounts?"
