Hello Retail MCP: tune search and recommendations by chat

Hello Retail's MCP server lets your AI app set up and tune your store's ecommerce search, recommendations, pages, email and product agents, and check the analytics behind them. Tuning changes what shoppers see, so ContextGate lets you switch off the tools that change settings, warn on a change with a policy and record every call.
