Overview
AI-generated overview
Gives an assistant sourced, dated cancellation steps and return policies for 53 US companies, plus cross-retailer return-window comparisons.
- What you can do
- List covered companies with their slug, type (subscription or retailer) and last-checked date
- Look up one company's cancellation steps or return policy, including deadlines, fees, exceptions and catches, with the company's own help page as source
- Compare return windows across all retailers, longest first, including holiday extensions and fees
- Review a dated log of recorded changes to these companies' cancellation and return policies
- When to use it
- Useful when someone asks how to cancel a specific subscription or what a store's return policy is, or wants to compare return windows across several retailers in one answer.
- Requirements
- Remote streamable HTTP endpoint at api.howtocancel.ai; no packages, environment variables, headers or authentication are declared.
Before you install
Policies are summaries of third-party help pages and are dated, so they can lag behind a company's current terms; confirm deadlines and fees with the company before acting. No credentials are requested.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open The Fine Print in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Use with an agent
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/ai.howtocancel%2Fthe-fine-print/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Other MCP clients
Add this to your client's mcpServers config.
