Territory News MCP Server 🚀

Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server for Territory News — Real-time Account Intelligence, Deal Signals & Strategic Openers for Enterprise Sales & Account Executives.

🎯 Overview

Territory News MCP (tnews-mcp) frees Account Executives (AEs) and sales teams from being chained to the manual Territory News web UI. By exposing territory configuration, company search, real-time signal preview, and AI-enriched seller context over the open Model Context Protocol (MCP) standard, tnews-mcp allows autonomous orchestrators—such as n8n, OpenClaw, Agentic Hermes, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Gemini, and custom Slack AI Agents—to continuously execute high-leverage sales workflows in the background.

⚡ The 5 Autonomous Agent Workflows (Freeing You from the UI)

Instead of logging into territory.news every morning to manually click through accounts and copy openers, connect tnews-mcp to your multi-agent runner (n8n cron trigger, OpenClaw agent, or Hermes):

1. ☕ 8:00 AM Morning Intelligence Briefing & Action Queue

• How It Works: Every morning at 8:00 AM, an n8n / OpenClaw cron job awakens your sales agent.

• Orchestration:

  1. The agent calls CRM MCP to fetch your active pipeline (Stages 2–4) and top Tier-1 target accounts.

  2. It invokes territory_get_signals on tnews-mcp to scan for material catalysts over the last 24 hours (e.g., CapEx expansion, CIO hires, earnings surprises, restructuring).

  3. It cross-references your configured seller value proposition (territory_get_seller_context) and synthesizes a 3-item Slack digest with 1-click pre-drafted outreach emails.

• AE Impact: You wake up to prioritized, ready-to-send outreach in Slack rather than combing through Google Alerts or web tabs.

2. ⚡ 5-Minute Pre-Call Battlecard Generator

• How It Works: 10 minutes prior to any calendar event, your agent triggers automatically.

• Orchestration:

  1. Calendar MCP detects an upcoming meeting (e.g., "Discovery with VP of Engineering at Datadog").

  2. Agent calls territory_preview_signals(company="Datadog", domain="datadoghq.com") to pull breaking news and financial catalysts.

  3. Agent calls CRM MCP to fetch previous call objections and notes.

  4. Agent delivers a 1-page tactical battlecard to your inbox or scratchpad containing:

     • Strategic Imperatives: What the account is currently navigating.

     • Persona Top-of-Mind: Key KPIs and friction points for the attendee's role.

     • 3 Provocative Openers: POV-led conversation starters directly connecting their public news to your product.

     • Landmines: Competitor presence or sensitive topics to avoid.

3. 🎯 Trigger-Based Stalled Deal Reactivation

• How It Works: Re-engaging ghosted or closed-lost deals with authentic value instead of "just checking in".

• Orchestration:

  1. Agent queries CRM MCP for deals in Stalled / No Contact > 30 Days with ARR > $50k.

  2. Agent queries territory_get_signals for major inflection events (e.g., new executive hires, earnings beats, M&A, regulatory changes).

  3. When an event fires (e.g., "EquipmentShare Jumps on 26% Revenue Growth"), the agent drafts a contextual follow-up connecting the growth to solving the specific bottleneck documented in CRM notes.

4. 👥 Multi-Threading Consensus Matrix

• How It Works: Enterprise deals require consensus across 6–10 stakeholders.

• Orchestration:

  1. When a single major catalyst is identified for a target account via tnews-mcp, the agent automatically maps the event to distinct personas:

     • To CFO: Cost containment, OPEX reduction, and vendor consolidation angles.

     • To CISO / Security: Compliance automation, zero-trust architecture, and audit risk reduction.

     • To VP Engineering: Developer velocity, eliminating deployment toil, and DORA metric acceleration.

  2. The agent queues tailored outreach drafts in your email client via Email MCP.

5. 🔄 Closed-Loop Feedback & Relevance Tuning

• How It Works: Continuous improvement of signal quality without manual configuration.

• Orchestration:

  1. When you accept, edit, or reject an outreach recommendation in Slack or Claude, the agent automatically invokes territory_submit_feedback on tnews-mcp.

  2. This provides immediate closed-loop telemetry back to Territory News to tune signal scoring and relevance models for your territory over time.

🏗️ Architecture: Hybrid Browser Auth + Direct REST API

This MCP server uses a high-performance hybrid architecture:

1. One-Time Browser Login: Launches a visible browser window once to sign in via Clerk (Work Email / Google SSO). It automatically captures the session token and saves it locally to ~/.territory-mcp/session.json.

2. 100% Direct REST API: All subsequent operations run via lightning-fast HTTP REST requests directly against Territory News endpoints (< 150ms latency, zero browser overhead, completely immune to DOM/UI changes).

🚀 Quickstart

1. Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/junoonx/tnews-mcp.git
cd tnews-mcp

# Install dependencies and build
npm install
npm run build

2. Connect to Your AI Host / Orchestrator

A. Claude Desktop

Add this to your claude_desktop_config.json (located at ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json on Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "territory-news": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/tnews-mcp/dist/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

B. Cursor IDE / Cline / Windsurf

Add to your .cursor/mcp.json or MCP settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "territory-news": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/tnews-mcp/dist/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

C. n8n / OpenClaw / Agentic Hermes / Docker

Pass the stdio command or set TERRITORY_SESSION_TOKEN in your environment:

TERRITORY_SESSION_TOKEN="your_clerk_session_jwt" node dist/index.js

🔐 Authentication

Method 1: Interactive Browser Login (Recommended)

Ask your AI assistant in Claude/Cursor:

"Log in to Territory News"

The server will invoke territory_login_browser, opening a browser window to territory.news. Log in with your work email or SSO. The browser will automatically save your session to ~/.territory-mcp/session.json and close itself.

Alternatively, you can run it directly from your terminal:

npm run login

Method 2: Headless Environment Variable

You can provide your session token directly:

export TERRITORY_SESSION_TOKEN="your_clerk_session_jwt_or_cookie"

💡 Example Prompts to Try with Your Agent

1. Pre-Call Discovery Battlecard
