retentioneering-tools
Python toolkit, MCP server, and agent skills for reproducible, auditable clickstream and event log analytics. Helps AI agents, data scientists and analysts build, validate, and cross-check product analytics, quantitative UX, customer journeys, graph-based user flows, behavioral segmentation, A/B tests, process mining models, Markov chain simulation
No outside reports on file
Use this tool only with trusted, non-sensitive event data, keep dependencies patched, and never let the AI agent share raw data or models outside your organization.
Based on public adoption and transparency signals as of Oct 23, 2026. Our opinion, not a code audit or security guarantee.

About Retentioneering Tools
Retentioneering-tools is a Python library that helps analyze user behavior data like click sequences and event logs. It builds models of how users move through products, finds patterns in their actions, and can simulate what might happen next using math-based methods.
Who it’s for
Data scientists, product analysts, and AI agents who need to understand user journeys and test product changes. It's designed for teams building reproducible, auditable analytics rather than one-off reports.
Alternatives
- Mixpanel / Amplitude: Commercial platforms for event analytics and user journey tracking (cloud-based, not open-source).
- PostHog: Open-source product analytics platform with event tracking and user cohorts built in.
- mParticle / Segment: Data integration platforms that route and analyze event streams (commercial).
- Apache Spark MLlib: General-purpose machine learning library that can model user sequences at scale (less specialized for product analytics).
Setup
Check these steps against the project’s own instructions before running anything.
Follow the setup steps in the project’s official README: https://github.com/retentioneering/retentioneering-tools (opens external site)
Why this grade
Signal-based grade (3/7 points): well starred on GitHub, public source code. This reflects adoption and transparency, not a code review.

Risks to watch for
- Access to user behavior data: The tool processes clickstream and event logs, which can contain sensitive information about what users do and when. An AI agent with access could expose this data if outputs aren't controlled.
- Indirect code execution: If the tool loads data from untrusted sources (files, APIs), malicious data might be interpreted as commands or cause crashes.
- Model poisoning: Attackers who control input event logs could craft fake patterns that make the models produce false insights, tricking decisions based on the analytics.
- Dependency vulnerabilities: The tool depends on other Python packages that might have security flaws; outdated versions could be exploited.
- Leaking analytics to third parties: If an agent shares results or model files without permission, proprietary user behavior insights could be exposed.
How to lower the risk
Least-privilege permissions
- Run the tool in a Python environment with read-only access to data files.
- Don't grant the agent permission to download or install new packages at runtime.
Network isolation
- Block outbound network access unless the tool explicitly needs to fetch data from your own servers.
- Isolate the tool's environment so it can't reach production user databases.
Monitoring
- Log what data the tool processes and what outputs it produces.
- Alert on unusual data volumes or unexpected file writes.
Red flags to watch for
- The tool requesting credentials or API keys it shouldn't need.
- Attempts to write to system directories or install packages.
- Outputs that contain raw personally identifiable information (names, emails, etc.).
