Aletheia Runtime Safety & Scope Creep Filter tools (6, 1 write)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

  • aletheia_get_mandate

    Retrieve the current operational safety mandate, permissions, and active boundary constraints.

  • aletheia_get_telemetry

    Retrieve runtime safety telemetry: total tool calls evaluated, block rate %, latency percentiles (p50, p95, p99 < 1ms), and violation counts broken down by signature.

  • aletheia_intercept

    Universal sub-millisecond safety gatekeeper. Evaluates any proposed tool invocation against Signature S3 (Scope Creep) and S2b (Prompt Injection) to block destructive, out-of-boundary, or compromised actions before execution.

  • aletheia_safe_bashwrite action

    Execute a shell/bash command with inline sub-millisecond Signature S3 scope creep protection. Blocks destructive deletes (rm -rf), disk formatting, fork bombs, credential harvesting, privilege escalation, and unauthorized network egress.

  • aletheia_safe_sql

    Audit or execute a database query with Signature S3 safety filters. Detects destructive DDL (DROP, TRUNCATE), unbounded DML (DELETE/UPDATE without WHERE), and privilege tampering.

  • aletheia_set_mandate

    Establish or update the active operational safety mandate for this agent session. Declares permissible boundaries, allowed tools, filesystem directories, write permissions, and risk tolerance. Loosening restrictions requires operatorSecret.

Aletheia MCP Server 🛡️

Sub-millisecond runtime filter that blocks scope-creep and prompt-injection tool calls before an AI agent can run them.

Aletheia MCP intercepts tool calls from Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and any other MCP-compatible agent before they execute and blocks the destructive ones, with sub-millisecond (~25 µs) overhead and no LLM in the hot path.

It's motivated by the Aletheia research paper's taxonomy of nine behavioral signatures: recurring LLM failure patterns, each with an ID, derived from the interfaces through which a model touches its environment (output/reality, input/trust, task/scope, and so on). This server targets two of them:

  • S3 (Scope Creep Beyond Mandate): the agent acts outside the task it was actually given, writing files outside its workspace, reaching into unrelated systems, quietly widening what it was asked to do.
  • S2b (Jailbreak Vulnerability, per the paper's naming): this server ships a practical, pattern-based heuristic for the adjacent problem of adversarial instructions smuggled through tool results, file contents, or fetched data. This is an engineering heuristic inspired by S2b, not an implementation of the paper's own empirical S2b findings — the paper explicitly defers S2b's evaluation ("scoped as a defined next step") pending a more stable attack taxonomy, and this server's keyword/pattern matching is a different, narrower thing than what that evaluation would measure.

The paper validates those nine signatures against 2,571 entries across three independent corpora: the AI Incident Database (AIID + hand-curated supplement, n=1,134), the AVID AI Vulnerability Database (n=767), and the MIT AI Risk Repository (n=670). The per-model detection-rate figures from that research are reported in the paper with their methodology; treat them as directional context for why these signatures matter, not as an independently-audited benchmark of this codebase.

Security Model: A Fast Pre-Filter, Not a Sandbox

Aletheia MCP is a deterministic, pattern-based lexical and structural filter, iteratively hardened through many rounds of adversarial red-teaming against the shell, SQL, filesystem, and network surfaces it inspects. Each round of testing has turned up real gaps, and each has been fixed and re-verified. That process is ongoing, not finished, and it never fully finishes: this is honest heuristic pattern-matching over Bash and SQL, not a formal parser or a proof of completeness.

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.

Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
