This server wraps Shashwat Ghosh's CRAFT GTM framework into eight strategic planning tools. You get operations like pmf_scorecard for product-market fit assessment with 90-day action plans, launch_commander for 12-week launch timelines with RACI matrices, retention_playbook for churn analysis and health scoring, and competitive_intel for battle cards. Each tool takes your context (metrics, market, timeline) and outputs structured strategy documents rather than quick tactical advice. Reach for this when you're doing quarterly planning sessions or mapping out major initiatives, not for day-to-day marketing tasks. It pairs with the author's other MCPs for content creation and positioning if you're building a full GTM stack.
CRAFT GTM Framework MCP Server: a complete redesign with metric parsing, context-aware outputs, and a structured draft with placeholders where your inputs give no fact.
Add https://craft-gtm.gtmhelix.com/mcp to Claude or ChatGPT as a custom connector. It needs no sign-in and always runs the newest version (2.2.22). The same tools run as a free web app with a form per tool at https://craft-gtm.gtmhelix.com/, and the setup steps are at https://craft-gtm.gtmhelix.com/connect/.
The npm package below is an older version (2.0.1 on npm on 27 September 2026) until the next npm release. Use it only if you need a local stdio server.
This is a major redesign addressing all critical issues from v1.x:
| Issue | v1.x | v2.0.0 |
|---|---|---|
| PMF Scorecard | Blank ___ outputs | Actually parses and scores your metrics |
| Launch Commander | Same 12-week template for all | Adapts to launch type, team size, budget |
| Retention Playbook | Generic health scores | Parses churn reasons, creates specific interventions |
| Competitive Intel | [Research] placeholders | Uses your competitor data, generates battle cards |
| CRAFT Analyzer | Blank scorecard output | Actually analyzes documents, finds gaps |
npm install -g @shashwatgtmalpha/craft-gtm-mcp

Generated on 27 September 2026 from the server's own tool list and checked again on 17 October 2026 against tools/list of craft-gtm-mcp 2.2.22 (the same code as the hosted MCP address), so every tool name, title, description and input below is exactly what the server accepts. Every tool is read-only.
| # | Tool | Title | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | pmf_scorecard | PMF Scorecard | Generate a Product-Market Fit scorecard. Parses the metrics you provide (MRR, churn, NPS, CAC, LTV, retention, activation and similar) and scores each dimension against built-in benchmark ranges. |
| 2 | launch_commander | Launch Commander | Generate a context-aware launch plan. Have a date? Get a detailed timeline. Still planning? Enter 'TBD' or a quarter such as 'Q2 2027' for a flexible plan. |
| 3 | customer_interview_kit | Customer Interview Kit | Generate interview guides that ADAPT based on interview type, industry, and product complexity. Includes synthesis templates. |
| 4 | retention_playbook | Retention Playbook | Generate retention strategies. Has DISCOVERY MODE: if you don't know WHY people churn, get a churn analysis framework first. |
| 5 | partner_architect | Partner Architect | Design partner programs that ADAPT based on partner model type. Different structures for resellers vs referrals vs integrations vs affiliates. |
| 6 | crisis_planner | Crisis Planner | Generate crisis playbooks. Know your risks? Get specific playbooks. Not sure what to plan for? The tool uses a default set of common crises for your industry (not ranked by likelihood). |
| 7 | competitive_intel | Competitive Intel | Generate battle cards. If you know your strengths/weaknesses, get complete battle cards. If you only know competitors and win/loss stories, we'll derive your positioning. |
| 8 | craft_gtm_analyzer | CRAFT GTM Analyzer | Analyze a GTM document against the CRAFT framework. Parses the content, identifies gaps, scores each dimension and suggests sections to add. |
