Every moment is one of three types — across three lifecycles.

Pre-gate, at-gate, post-value — layered across free, trial, and paid. Only a real block ever auto-offers; pre-gate and post-value moments ride an opt-in guidance tier that must cite the event that grounds it.

  • at_gate — the wall itself. The only moment that ever triggers an offer.
  • pre_gate — approaching paid value. Grounded forecasts, never pitches.
  • post_value — value just delivered, receptiveness at its peak. Guidance only.

From blocked to resumed.

From the blocked tool call to the resumed task, every step happens inside the workflow — and every step is recorded.

01
Detect
A free-tier limit, trial gate, usage wall, or feature gate fires inside your MCP tool — recorded as a wall event with full trigger context.
02
Decide
Lifecycle state, capability-to-plan mapping, and your playbook choose the right path — or none at all.
03
Present
A revenue card renders in the thread: plan comparison, trial countdown, path chooser — framed by what the user was doing.
04
Complete
Checkout on your own Stripe. Portal, admin approval, sales routing, and limited mode when buying isn’t the answer.
05
Attribute
Authenticated session → pseudonymous subject → Stripe customer. Deterministic — no cookies, no modeling, no debate.
06
Resume
Entitlement refreshes and the task picks up exactly where it stopped. The "keep going" moment is the product’s signature.

Checkout is one path of five.

Real organizations have procurement. The blocked user often can't buy — so the card routes to whoever can: the billing portal, a workspace admin with full context attached, sales, or a graceful limited mode. Nothing dead-ends.

  • Admin approval carries the exact blocked action and why — no lost tickets.
  • Fallbacks are first-class outcomes, recorded and attributable.
  • Per-lifecycle posture: permissive for trials, conservative for enterprise.

Every path is recorded against the wall that caused it.

The only upsell your users will thank you for.

This is error-handling with a resolution path — service recovery, not advertising. The guarantee is structural, not aspirational.

No block, no offer. Enforced.

Every offer requires a recorded blocking event the user just hit — enforced in the schema, tested in CI. An unprompted upsell is impossible by construction, and your dashboard shows every offer with its trigger.

Ships conservative.

The posture ladder defaults to walls-only. Guidance tiers are opt-in per trigger class, and every advisory must cite the event that grounds it — forecast-shaped, never pitch-shaped.

You hold every dial.

Frequency caps, per-user cooldowns, quiet segments, per-wall kill switches, per-lifecycle postures — and a draft-approve-apply flow so no copy reaches your users unreviewed.

Five tools. Your entitlement logic stays yours.

The pack registers alongside your existing tools. Your entitlement check runs locally in your server — or delegates to your own Stripe in config-only mode. Fail-open by design: our outage can never break your tools.
