# OpenMandate

> [!IMPORTANT]
> OpenMandate is in private development. We are not currently accepting new mandates or new integrations.

Use this retained integration only for an existing OpenMandate account. If
`OPENMANDATE_API_KEY` is absent, explain that new integrations are unavailable;
do not direct the user to sign up or create a key.

## Available operations

Prefer the hosted MCP endpoint at `https://mcp.openmandate.ai/mcp`. The bundled
stdlib-only helper remains available as:

```bash
python3 {baseDir}/scripts/openmandate.py <command> [args]
```

Existing users may:

- list or retrieve their historical mandates and matches;
- list retained contacts;
- close an existing mandate;
- decline a match; and
- delete a contact.

Do not attempt to create or reactivate work, add or verify contacts, submit
intake answers or outcomes, accept matches, or establish a new account/API key.
Those operations return `SERVICE_PRIVATE_DEVELOPMENT`.

Before a consequential withdrawal action such as closing a mandate or deleting
a contact, confirm the exact target with the user. Read-only historical access
does not require extra ceremony.
