ForgingStack Mandate Check

by jdkabattlesversion 0.2.1i★ 0iRuns on your computer
Registry nameio.github.jdkabattles/forgingstack-mandate-check

How to install

What it does

Before your agent acts, check its mandate. One call, one receipt.

  • Connects Runs on your computer
  • Account or key Needs FORGINGSTACK_API_KEY
  • Category Other

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Passed 3/3 checks · Runs on your computer · ✓ Commands checked Nov 14, 2026

First: which AI do you use?

Pick your app and the steps appear below.

Works with Claude, with some setup first

You need a ForgingStack Mandate Check key (create it on the maker’s site) · Install Python (uv) on your computer first (one time) · Only the Claude desktop app (Windows or Mac), not the web or phone

Let AI install it

Copy this message into a Claude chat. The AI checks your computer, tells you which file it will change, and waits for your OK every time.

Please install the MCP server ForgingStack Mandate Check for Claude on this computer, in this order: 1) Check uv with uv --version. If it is missing, tell me to install it from https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/; do not install it yourself. 2) Use only this config (already checked by PopNx MCP): { "mcpServers": { "forgingstack-mandate-check": { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "forgingstack-mandate-check" ], "env": { "FORGINGSTACK_API_KEY": "your-value" } } } } 3) Tell me the full path of the file you will change, or the command you will run, and wait for my OK. 4) For FORGINGSTACK_API_KEY, leave "your-value" in place and tell me to paste the real value myself into the file or the app’s field. Never ask me to type a key in chat. 5) Do what we agreed, then check that the ForgingStack Mandate Check tools really show up.

This message has no key in it. If a key is needed, the AI will ask you to paste it yourself into the file or the app’s field.

  1. Install uv (if you don’t have it)

    Already installed? Check first · Open Terminal, type this command and press Enter

    uv --version
    • A version number such as uv … = installed, skip this step
    • "command not found" (on Windows: "is not recognized") = not installed yet, or installed but Terminal needs to be closed and reopened
    How to open Terminal

    Mac: press ⌘ + Space, type Terminal, press Enter

    Windows: open Start, type Windows PowerShell, then Open

    Not installed: uv has no click-through installer. Copy the one-line command for your system (macOS or Windows) from uv’s official page into Terminal · no separate Python install needed; uv downloads it when required

    Open the uv download page ↗

    When it’s done, close Terminal, open it again and run the same command. You should see a version number: uv --version

    Install once; it works for everything that needs uv

  2. Sign up and create a ForgingStack Mandate Check key

    Open the maker’s site, sign up and create an API key for the next step. Check the maker’s site for pricing and free plans.

    How to get a key is in the maker’s README below

  3. Open the Claude desktop app’s settings file

    SettingsDeveloperEdit Config

  4. Paste these settings and save the file

      }
    }
  }
}

    Paste the key only into the app’s field, never into a chat or to anyone

  5. Quit Claude and open it again

  6. Try it

    Use ForgingStack Mandate Check and tell me what you can do for me, then show me one thing

    ✓ If Claude says it is using ForgingStack Mandate Check or shows a ForgingStack Mandate Check tool in the answer, you are connected

Common questions

Is ForgingStack Mandate Check safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: FORGINGSTACK_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 10 days ago, and the latest version (0.2.1) reached the registry 11 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

ForgingStack Mandate Check

Before your agent acts, check its mandate. One call, one receipt.

mcp-name: io.github.jdkabattles/forgingstack-mandate-check

This is the public client for Mandate Check. The service itself — the decision logic, the receipt chain, the key store, and billing — runs on ForgingStack's private service and is not in this repo. Copying this repo does not give you the service: you still need an API key and credits, from signup below.

Live API: https://forgingstack-mandate-check.jkbattles.workers.dev

What it checks, in order

  1. Mandate agent matches the calling agent
  2. Mandate principal matches the principal the agent acts for
  3. Mandate expiry is parseable and in the future
  4. Action is in the mandate's allowed actions

Pass or fail, you get a reason and a hash-chained receipt.

What it does not do: decide if an action is wise, legal, or safe. Mandate fit only.

Signup (v1)

curl -X POST https://forgingstack-mandate-check.jkbattles.workers.dev/v1/signup \

-H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"email":"you@example.com"}'

Returns an API key once and 100 starter credits. Save the key immediately — it is stored only as a hash and cannot be shown again. Email verification is pending, and credit-pack billing is not live yet, so do not expect a purchase flow in v1.

Agent sub-keys

A signed-up human creates a key for each agent, capped and revocable:

curl -X POST https://forgingstack-mandate-check.jkbattles.workers.dev/v1/keys \

-H "X-API-Key: YOUR_PRIMARY_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"agent_name":"my-agent","credits":20}'

List with GET /v1/keys, revoke with DELETE /v1/keys/{id} — revoking returns unused credits to the primary account.

Use it (MCP, stdio)

Set the key, then run the MCP server in this repo:

export FORGINGSTACK_API_KEY="your-key-here"

python -m app.mcp_server

Tools: check_mandate, get_credits, get_receipt. See SKILL.md for when to use it and when not to.

Price

1 credit per check call. A failed decision still costs 1 credit — the check was performed. An idempotent replay (same Idempotency-Key) is free and returns the original receipt.
