    Mark a review note resolved on a workpaper.

  • select_sampleFree

    Select a reproducible sample from a population. Seeded (deterministic) for random/systematic/haphazard; targeted takes explicit references. Records the method, seed and references.

What the publisher says

From the Coso repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

coso-mcp

An open Model Context Protocol server for internal-control reviews under the COSO Internal Control—Integrated Framework (ICIF-2013). It covers the full review lifecycle — scope → risk assessment → control register → population → sampling → testing → workpapers → review sign-off → deficiency evaluation → report — grounded in the framework's 5 components, 17 principles and points of focus.

(reference + read tools, plus an ephemeral per-session sandbox for the full write lifecycle — nothing persists).

  • Local: runs over stdio (npx @simonmak-ascent/coso-mcp).
  • Hosted: public endpoint at https://internal-control.ascent-partners.com/mcp

Not audit or legal advice. This server assists with internal-control review

methodology. All workpapers and assessments must be reviewed by qualified

professionals before use in audit documentation.

Why this exists (competitive advantage)

Existing MCP servers either expose a vendor's GRC records (read-mostly, proprietary, product-shaped) or cover ISO 27001 / security controls. None runs a traceable COSO review. coso-mcp is the first COSO/ICFR-native, write-capable, open MCP for the whole lifecycle.

Moat: it is the lifecycle layer, not the data layer — it can sit on top of Workiva/Vanta/Drata rather than compete for their data; its sampling and deficiency math are computed, not improvised; and openness gives zero-friction distribution no gated vendor can match.

Tools

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.

How does Coso compare with other MCP servers?
safety score 86/100 (higher than 72% of 45,646 servers); tools 39 (the typical server has 7); tools that change things 5% (typical: 0%. Fewer write tools means less an agent can break). Full comparison.
