Gate/Prove: deny unattended destructive agent tools. Instant Audit $499 on a2zsoc.com.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

Common questions

Is Agent Action Gate safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

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 –, and the latest version (0.2.0) reached the registry 3 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

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

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Spec Driven Development, Remote Desktop Commander, Zoo MCP

Agent Action Gate

Gate/Prove runtime for agent and MCP tool calls.

Normalize tool intent → deny unknown → never treat model confidence as approval → HITL prove on destructive / provision / decommission → Action Ledger (hash chain).

Extracted from GRC_Claw @grc-claw/agent-policy-firewall. This repo is the sharp foundry slice: one command, no cathedral.

Commercial (how this is sold): $499 Instant Audit and consultation on a2zsoc.com.

Why this exists (revenue + cost)

AI-agent companies do not pay for “another MCP.” They pay to stop unattended destructive tools and to prove Gate/Prove gaps before SOC 2 Type I, PE diligence, or insurance renewal.

Cost driverWhat this gate doesBuyer outcome
Ungated shell.exec / disable-control / decommissionDENY unless HITL prove token + approvedAvoid production blast
Agent “95% sure”never_equate_intent_to_approval: trueIntent ≠ ledger proof
Write tools fire on first thoughtDefault SIMULATE (no side effects)FDE minutes, not incident cost
No audit trailAppend-only Action Ledger with hash chainDiligence packet

Hard rule: never equate agent intent or model score to human approval.

Illustrative cost sketch (not a quote): make bench.

Quick start

make demo
PYTHONPATH=. python3 -m aag demo

PYTHONPATH=. python3 -m aag check fixtures/t1059_unattended_shell.json PYTHONPATH=. python3 -m aag bench

Unattended high-tier calls DENY even at 0.99 confidence. ALLOW needs AAG_PROVE_TOKEN (or --prove-token) and approved: true.

export AAG_PROVE_TOKEN='replace-me'

PYTHONPATH=. python3 -m aag check fixtures/proved_decommission.json --prove-token "$AAG_PROVE_TOKEN"

Kill-switch: AAG_KILL_SWITCH=1 or touch artifacts/KILL.

MCP stdio server

This process never executes tools. Clients call gate_check before they would invoke a destructive tool.

PYTHONPATH=. python3 -m aag serve

Cursor / Claude example (mcpServers):

{

"agent-action-gate": { "command": "python3", "args": ["-m", "aag", "serve"], "cwd": "/path/to/agent-action-gate", "env": { "PYTHONPATH": ".", "AAG_PROVE_TOKEN": "replace-me" } } }

Docker / registry image:

docker run --rm -i ghcr.io/aah20/agent-action-gate:0.2.0

Official MCP Registry name: io.github.AAH20/agent-action-gate

Envelope

Every decision includes:

  • never_equate_intent_to_approval: true
  • allow_auto_execute (false on unattended high tiers)
  • mode: deny | simulate | allow
  • ledger_id / receipt_hash
  • CTAs: Instant Audit + consultation

Library mapper

Same Gate/Prove policy from Python without the stdio loop:

from aag.gate import AgentActionGate

from aag.mcp import evaluate_mcp_call

gate = AgentActionGate(prove_token="replace-me") evaluate_mcp_call(gate, {"params": {"name": "shell.exec", "arguments": {"note": "no payload"}}})
