Common questions

Is Gate Authority Network 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?

You need to fill in: GATE_URL, GATE_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 –, and the latest version (0.1.0-dev.8) reached the registry 10 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

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

What can I use instead?

GATE — Authority Verification Network

Stage 17 Developer Preview · Live public adoption

Does a live delegation path from this principal to this actor still exist right now?

GATE is the live authority-state resolver for delegated agents across trust domains.

It resolves whether a currently valid authority path still exists at effect time using live authority state from external trust domains. GATE does not mint a proprietary delegation token, replace OAuth, replace your policy engine, or require MCP.

GATE Stage 17 — current Developer Preview

Current operational boundary: one Canadian primary database, no production regional replicas, and no independent third-party issuer propagation SLA. maxStalenessMs measures primary snapshot age only. The Developer Preview is not enterprise GA.

GATE public product website — launch, Free plans, and supported developer paths.
Independent Free MCP trial — no repository clone — published MCP dev.9, signed grant/revoke, one disposable local effect, and a feedback checklist.
Signed revocation quickstart — actual GATE Network DENY → ALLOW → DENY with a self-controlled ES256 test issuer.
Start with the hosted sandbox — synthetic graph for learning GATE revocation semantics.
Create a real Free GATE Network project — live gate-network with a real API key and managed quota.
Connect your own ES256 authority source.
Stage 16 frozen public baseline release.
Stage 17E Free → paid continuity and billing hardening.
Stage 17D external problem validation.
Production / preview runtime boundary.
Current API, topology and limitations.

Stage 17 has validated real Free onboarding, independent CAEP/SSF revocation interoperability, external problem validation, and Free-to-paid entitlement continuity. GATE remains a Developer Preview: independent adoption and enterprise-scale operation are the next validation targets.

Where GATE fits

Identity / credentials / policy / issuer systems

GATE complements identity, credential, policy and gateway systems. MCP is one integration surface, not GATE's definition.

The differentiator is not multi-hop alone. It is the combination of live upstream revocation, alternate-path preservation, federated issuer state, freshness semantics and protocol-neutral effect-time resolution.

Read: docs/POSITIONING.md, docs/INTEGRATION-MODEL.md, docs/RELEASE-BOUNDARY.md.

Public Developer Quickstart

GATE exposes two separate onboarding paths.

Sandbox

Use the hosted sandbox to learn GATE semantics on a synthetic authority graph:

https://gate-phi-eosin.vercel.app/quickstart.html

Temporary key: 7 days. Quota: 500 verifications/project/day.

Live Free Network

Canonical endpoint:

https://ufqtoyakmrddqytrkcje.supabase.co/functions/v1/gate-network

Current Free Developer Preview: 50,000 verifications/month, 1 authority issuer, bounded consistency. Strict consistency is not included.

Use GateClient from @gate-avn/sdk. See docs/QUICKSTART.md for the complete live-network flow.

Repository development demo

Requirements: Node.js 20+.

npm install

npm test npm run demo

The demo calls the public SDK shape:

import { GateClient } from './packages/sdk/dist/index.js';

const gate = new GateClient({ endpoint: process.env.GATE_URL });

const result = await gate.verify({ principal: 'user:jerome', actor: 'agent:C@company-c', action: { protocol: 'mcp', name: 'delete_customer_data', resource: 'customer:3456' }, consistency: 'bounded', maxStalenessMs: 200 });

if (result.decision !== 'ALLOW') throw new Error(result.reason);

What GATE verifies

GATE answers a deliberately narrow question: whether the actor still has at least one live delegation path from the principal, according to sufficiently fresh external authority state.

The public contract separates authority state from application policy. A credential can remain syntactically valid while GATE returns INVALID or UNKNOWN because the authority behind it is no longer live or cannot be established with the requested freshness.

It can return:

VALID / ALLOW — at least one live authority path exists.
INVALID / DENY — the known paths are revoked/invalid.
UNKNOWN / DENY — freshness or availability is insufficient for the requested consistency contract.

What GATE does not do

GATE is not your business-policy PDP. The action object is carried for integration/audit context in this preview; policy such as "may this principal delete customer 3456?" belongs in AuthZEN, Cedar, OPA, Permit, Cerbos, OpenFGA, or your existing authorization system.

GATE is also not trying to replace OAuth, MCP, A2A, OpenID Federation, Security Event Tokens, Shared Signals, an IdP, or an API/AI gateway. The intended role is to sit underneath/alongside them as a live authority-state resolver.

The Developer Preview does not claim a portable cryptographically signed authority proof. It returns a live resolution result; a signed GATE receipt is a possible future layer, not a current release promise.

Why a network service?

A local verifier can validate signatures, expiry, scopes and token chains. It cannot independently know every external issuer's current revocation state, trust changes, alternate delegation paths, or freshness across domains. GATE's hypothesis is that the defensible value is the shared, low-latency state network — not a secret verification algorithm.

Consistency contracts

bounded: live verification from the canonical primary on v7, with a bounded primary-read snapshot age; regional replicas are not yet deployed.
strict: canonical primary-read verification available only to eligible plans; not synchronous confirmation of external issuer systems.

Install

SDK

npm install @gate-avn/sdk@0.1.0-dev.4

Repository Stage 16 baseline: 0.1.0-dev.4

Published SDK version used by the trial: 0.1.0-dev.4.

MCP server

npm install @gate-avn/mcp@0.1.0-dev.9

Repository Stage 16 baseline: 0.1.0-dev.8

Published npm @dev: 0.1.0-dev.9; @latest remains 0.1.0-dev.2 (public registry checked 2026-11-02). Pin the trial version explicitly.

The current repository CLI descriptions differ from the published dev.9 archive after PR #24. The trial installs from npm and does not substitute workspace code. Glama indexing and npm publication are separate: discovery is not proof of an independent successful integration.

Official MCP Registry:

io.github.Projetxana/gate-authority-network

Status

GATE is publicly available as a Developer Preview on npm and in the Official MCP Registry.

The SDK and MCP server are currently installable from the public npm registry. The MCP server is also discoverable through the Official MCP Registry.

The HTTP, x402, AuthZEN, A2A, AP2 and SSF adapters exist in the Stage 16 repository baseline but are not yet published as public npm packages.

This remains experimental Developer Preview software and is not production-ready.

Read next: docs/STAGE17D-EXTERNAL-VALIDATION.md, docs/STAGE17E-FREE-PAID-CONTINUITY.md, docs/DUE-DILIGENCE-2026-10-02.md and docs/PUBLIC-VALIDATION-PLAN.md.
