@canhelpto-com/mcp-support

Customer support inside your MCP server. Your users are in Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor now; when one of your tools fails there, they have no help button. This package adds one.

• support_ask answers from your own rules (no model call, never invented).

• support_open_ticket opens a ticket with the account, the client and the last tool calls attached, errors included.

• support_ticket_status brings your team's answer back into the user's chat.

• Every tool you register after it is timed and recorded, and its errors carry a hint that tells the agent where to turn.

Tickets land in your canhelpto inbox with the failed call shown next to the customer's words. Your team answers there or from its own agent. Free for one workspace.

Install with one prompt

Tell your coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex):

Add canhelpto support to this MCP server, following https://canhelpto.com/install.md

It reads your server, adds the package, wires the user lookup and opens a test ticket.

Install by hand

npm install @canhelpto-com/mcp-support

import { McpServer } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/mcp.js";
import { withSupport } from "@canhelpto-com/mcp-support";

const server = new McpServer({ name: "acme", version: "1.0.0" });

withSupport(server, {
  apiKey: process.env.CANHELPTO_API_KEY!,   // canhelpto.com -> Settings -> Service key (chs_...)
  product: "Acme Invoices",
  user: (extra) => lookupUser(extra),        // { id, name?, email?, ...anything you want the team to see }
  rules: [
    { match: ["domain", "dns"], answer: "Verify your sender domain in Settings > Email.", nextTool: "get_settings" },
    { match: /rate.?limit/i, answer: "You hit the rate limit; it resets after 60 seconds." },
  ],
});

// Register your own tools after withSupport, as usual.
server.registerTool("send_invoice", { inputSchema: { invoiceId: z.string() } }, async ({ invoiceId }) => { /* ... */ });

Call withSupport before registering your own tools: those registered after it are recorded and get the error hint.

Options

Privacy

The ticket carries the account fields you return from user(), the client fields, and the names, times, durations and error messages of the last calls. Tool arguments and results are never sent. Reads never use service mode, so your team's internal notes stay out of the chat, and a user only sees tickets on their own account.

Demo server

demo/ is a runnable example: a made-up "Acme Invoices" server with support mounted (create_invoice fails on purpose for currencies other than EUR and USD). Run it over stdio with npx tsx demo/server.ts, or docker build -t canhelpto-demo . && docker run -i canhelpto-demo. Set CANHELPTO_API_KEY to file real tickets in your workspace.
