File	When to use
resources/customer-health-signals.md	Filter cookbook of churn signals — --filter expressions for notes_last_contacted, hs_last_sales_activity_date, hs_email_optout, stale tickets, subscription status.

Prereqs

Read bulk-operations/SKILL.md first — every read/write below uses its JSONL pipe, pagination, and dry-run/digest patterns. Activity-property tables and association rules live in sales-execution/SKILL.md.

Schema is portal-specific. Verify each property before filtering — e.g. hubspot properties get --type contacts notes_last_contacted, ... hs_last_sales_activity_date, ... --type subscriptions hs_subscription_status. If subscriptions returns 403, your token lacks subscriptions-read — use a private-app token with that scope.

1 — Find inactive customers

CUTOFF=$(date -v-60d +%Y-%m-%d 2>/dev/null || date -d '60 days ago' +%Y-%m-%d)

# No outreach in 60d (calls/notes/meetings update notes_last_contacted)
hubspot objects search --type contacts \
  --filter "lifecyclestage=customer AND notes_last_contacted<$CUTOFF" \
  --properties email,firstname,notes_last_contacted,hubspot_owner_id

# No sales activity in 60d (broader — also catches emails/tasks)
hubspot objects search --type contacts \
  --filter "lifecyclestage=customer AND hs_last_sales_activity_date<$CUTOFF" \
  --properties email,firstname,hs_last_sales_activity_date

# Never contacted
hubspot objects search --type contacts \
  --filter "lifecyclestage=customer AND !notes_last_contacted" \
  --properties email,firstname

For more signals (email opt-out, stale tickets, no open deals) see resources/customer-health-signals.md. For >100 hits, use the pagination loop from bulk-operations.

2 — Flag at-risk subscriptions

subscriptions is a standard object (hubspot objects types confirms). Enum values for hs_subscription_status are portal-specific — verify before filtering, then plug the exact value in:

hubspot properties get --type subscriptions hs_subscription_status   # lists allowed values

# Past-due — revenue at immediate risk (substitute your verified value)
hubspot objects search --type subscriptions \
  --filter "hs_subscription_status=past_due" \
  --properties hs_recurring_billing_total,hs_subscription_status

# Map an at-risk subscription to its contact for outreach
hubspot associations list --from subscriptions:<sub_id> --to contacts --format jsonl
