PRISM is a read-only, offline server that helps AI systems preflight reasoning, measure contradictions, and generate synthesis rules without calling external LLMs. It offers four tools:
prism.preflight: Given a task, deterministically selects 3–5 useful analytical perspectives and returns a claim-packet contract specifying how the host should structure its responses. Options: task, mode, max_perspectives.
prism.measure: Takes 2–5 candidate claim packets and uses local CPU-based ONNX encoders to measure contradictions, scope divergence, duplicates, and internal conflicts. Reports conflict metrics (currently uncalibrated) without determining correctness.
prism.synthesis_contract: Combines preflight and measurement results to generate deterministic rules for the host’s final answer—what conflicts to disclose, what claims to preserve, and what shortcuts to prohibit.
prism.health: Reports local health. Shallow mode checks contracts and registry; deep mode additionally verifies model artifact hashes, confirms CPU execution, and runs a synthetic inference.
All tools are idempotent, require no network, make no file mutations, and handle no credentials. The server measures conflict, not truth; agreement does not imply correctness, and contradiction metrics are uncalibrated (authoritative fields are suppressed pending human validation).
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@prism-mcp Preflight this decision: should we migrate to microservices?"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Your AI just agreed with itself five times. That is not five opinions.
PRISM is a reasoning preflight for AI harnesses: it picks the perspectives a task actually needs, then measures where the answers contradict each other — offline, on CPU, in about 3.6 seconds.
PRISM measures conflict. It does not establish truth. Agreement is not correctness. A contradiction rate of zero means no measured disagreement among comparable claims — nothing more. See Before you trust a number.
You ask a model to review something from five angles. It returns five confident, well-written, mutually agreeing paragraphs. That reads like consensus.
It isn't. One model in one pass is one source, however many labels it wears. And when those five answers do disagree, the disagreement is buried in prose that nobody diffs.
PRISM does the diffing. It never asks a model anything — it takes the packets your model already produced and scores them against each other with two small local encoders.

source_rule is shipped to your model. PRISM refuses to let five labels masquerade as
five sources, and it tells the model so up front rather than correcting it afterwards.

style F fill:#e8f4f8,stroke:#2b7489Preflight classifies the task with a deterministic keyword table — no model, no embedding — and selects 3, 4, or 5 perspectives from a content-hashed registry of 13.
Your host model answers every perspective in one pass as claim packets, 8–80 words per claim, within the returned budget.
Measurement enumerates cross-candidate claim pairs, scores relevance with E1, keeps pairs above a frozen floor, classifies scope, then scores contradiction with E2 in both directions and takes the maximum.
Synthesis returns rules: what to disclose, what to preserve, what not to do.
E1 decides whether two claims are about the same subject; E2 decides whether same-subject claims disagree. The order is load-bearing, not an optimisation. Measured on the exact encoders this repository pins:
Claim pair | E1 similarity | E2 P(contradiction) |
"is ready for production" vs "is not ready for production" | 0.542 | 0.9946 |
"latency under 1s" vs "latency exceeds 10s" | 0.555 | 0.9944 |
"is ready for production" vs "can be deployed to production" | — | 0.0009 |
"the cat sat on the mat" vs "the registry has 13 perspectives" | 0.055 | 0.8492 |
The last row is the point. The NLI model confidently calls two entirely unrelated sentences a contradiction. Run E2 alone and you ship that as a finding. The relevance floor is what stops it.

Preflight, synthesis and health work the moment you install. Measurement needs a two-encoder ONNX bundle, roughly 403 MB, pinned by immutable upstream revision and SHA-256:
uv run python scripts/acquire_models.py # fetches only the pinned revisions
uv run python scripts/verify_models.py # fetch-free: hashes what is on disk
uv run prism health --deepThe weights are not committed; models/artifacts/manifest.json
is, so a clone can verify a bundle it obtained independently. Every run re-verifies hashes,
sizes and path containment before any session is created. See
models/README.md and docs/model-card.md.
PRISM_DISABLE_MEASURE=1 disables inference entirely while leaving everything else working.
This is the section to read twice. Version 0.1.0 is functionally complete and not release ready, and the gap is stated rather than styled around.
The contradiction threshold is uncalibrated. No human-labelled corpus has been scored
against it, so every report carries calibration_status = UNCALIBRATED_PENDING_HUMAN_VALIDATION.
While that holds:
the authoritative contradiction_count, contradiction_rate and agreement_type fields
are suppressed — None, None and UNCLEAR — by a model validator no code path can
bypass;
provisional values appear only under experimental_contradiction_count,
experimental_contradiction_rate and experimental_threshold;
the synthesis contract tells your model to treat those as a prompt to look, never as a finding.
No precision, recall, F1 or MCC is published for this build, because none has been measured. Any such number would be fabricated. Calibration requires real pre-existing outputs harvested with provenance, labelled independently by a second human, with the manifest hash committed before any encoder run and the sealed test set scored exactly once.
Two workloads, and the difference between them is the point. The reference workload submits the legal maximum shape — 5 candidates × 4 claims, 160 cross-candidate pairs — but its claims cover four subjects, so E1 drops 100 pairs and 60 reach the NLI model. The adversarial workload puts every claim on one subject, so all 160 survive E1 and each is scored in both directions: 320 NLI calls, the maximum the contract permits.
Measured on AMD64 (16 logical cores), Windows 11, Python 3.12.10.

The reference workload misses its own 3,500 ms p95 target by 2.5–4.9%, and that is recorded as missed. It is not a code regression: the commit the previous baseline came from measures p95 6,684 ms on this same machine today, so current code is ~46% faster. Preflight, which loads no model, rose 73% over the same period — which is what identifies the shift as environmental rather than algorithmic.
The adversarial workload never fits inside the 8,000 ms p95 hard limit — 18% and 25% over it. That budget has not moved and is still missed. The two runs agree to within 1.6% on p50 yet disagreed on the deadline verdict: one finished its worst measurement in 9,564 ms, the other took 10,246 ms. Whether the legal-maximum workload completed was decided by the run, not by the input.
The deadline was raised from 10 s to 15 s because of exactly that straddle. A contract that advertises a capacity has to be able to serve it. What did not change: the 160-pair maximum and the 8,000 ms / 10,000 ms budgets. No budget was adjusted to turn a red run green.

so --strict fails on this build by design: a check that did not run has not passed.
Notable properties under test: canonical digest parity across the Python API, CLI and MCP server; determinism across nine environment permutations in fresh processes, including the Turkish dotless-i locale; a 20-client burst holding at two active with zero queued and sub-50 ms rejection; ten simultaneous cold callers producing exactly one encoder session pair; and a maximum-conflict 160-pair report staying under 12 KB with exact counts intact.

During normal analysis PRISM performs no outbound network access, no shell or subprocess execution, no filesystem mutation, no credential handling and no user-project scanning. It reads packaged registry data, hash-verified model artifacts beneath a dedicated root, and the input you give it.
This is not an OS sandbox. PRISM's own code performs no privileged operation, but Python
and the native inference runtime execute with the ambient rights of the host process.
Production deployment requires a host sandbox, a minimal environment allowlist, a read-only
model directory and no secrets in the child process environment. See
SECURITY.md and docs/operations.md.
PRISM does not call an LLM, store tasks, authenticate users, browse the web, execute code, or decide which claim is true.
Uncalibrated. No validated precision, recall or F1. See above.
Scope classification is heuristic. Only lifecycle, environment, scale and platform differences can exclude a pair from the denominator. Tense and modality cannot: excluding on those removed a genuine contradiction during testing — "is ready today" versus "is not ready and will fail" is a disagreement, not two different worlds. Uncertain pairs stay in.
Known NLI weaknesses: numeric conflicts, long technical claims, domain jargon, subtle temporal qualifiers.
Provenance is declared, never verified. Several lenses from one host call are one source, and PRISM says so. It cannot confirm that separately declared sources are real.
Zero-day exposure is managed, not eliminated. Hash verification proves an artifact is the one pinned; it cannot prove a correctly signed dependency is free of unknown flaws.
Still absent: a compatibility matrix against pinned prior host releases, and a signed
regression baseline. Full list: docs/operations.md.
uv sync and the reproducible-build gate are lock-bound: exact versions, exact hashes. An
installed wheel is not. pyproject.toml declares compatible ranges (mcp>=2,<3,
onnxruntime>=1.20,<2, and four more), so any install resolves them independently of
uv.lock, and the same command a month later can produce different transitive versions.
The lock governs this repository's development and CI environments; it does not travel inside
the wheel. For a lock-bound deployment, clone at a pinned commit and run uv sync --frozen
rather than installing the distribution.

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description adds substantial behavioral detail beyond the annotations: it enumerates exactly what shallow and deep modes verify (contracts, perspective registry, artifact hashes, CPU provider, synthetic inference) and states the tool does not scan the project/environment. This complements the readOnly/idempotent hints with concrete operational context.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is three sentences: a clear purpose statement, a concise breakdown of shallow vs deep, and an important limitation. It is front-loaded, with no redundant wording or filler.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a single-boolean parameter tool with an output schema, the description covers behavior (shallow/deep), scope (local health), and a key exclusion (no project/environment scan). It is sufficiently complete for an agent to decide when and how to invoke the tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The only parameter 'deep' has no schema description (coverage 0%), but the description fully explains the contrast between shallow and deep modes, making the parameter's meaning explicit and actionable. This goes well beyond the raw schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description opens with 'Report local health,' a specific verb and resource, and then precisely defines the two modes (shallow and deep) and what each checks. This clearly distinguishes it from sibling tools like prism.preflight and prism.measure, which are named differently and serve different purposes.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explains the two modes (shallow vs deep) and includes an explicit exclusion ('Never scans the user's project or environment'). However, it does not explicitly mention when to prefer this tool over its siblings, though the distinct health-check purpose implies appropriate usage.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Measure contradictions, scope divergence, duplicates, and internal conflicts across 2-5 candidate claim packets using local CPU encoders. Bounded runtime. Reads only the verified local model bundle and the supplied input; mutates nothing and reaches no network. Reports conflict, never truth.

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Beyond the annotations (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint), the description adds substantial behavioral detail: it reads only the verified local model bundle and supplied input, reaches no network, mutates nothing, and has bounded runtime. It also clarifies its reporting philosophy ('Reports conflict, never truth'), giving a richer picture of what the tool does and guarantees. No contradiction with annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is three sentences, each adding distinct value: measurement scope, runtime bound, and safety/philosophy. It is front-loaded with the action and resource, uses no filler words, and is highly scannable. Every sentence earns its place.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description covers purpose, key behavioral constraints, and input cardinality, which is strong given the annotations and existence of an output schema. However, the opaque request parameter is not explained, and there is no guidance on how the tool interacts with sibling tools (e.g., when to use prism.preflight vs this). This leaves some gaps for an agent trying to invoke the tool correctly.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema has a single opaque request object with additionalProperties true and 0% description coverage. The description provides a hint that the input involves '2-5 candidate claim packets,' but it does not explain how to structure the request object, what fields are expected, or how the claim packets should be represented. The description insufficiently compensates for the schema's lack of detail.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses a specific verb ('Measure') with a precise resource ('contradictions, scope divergence, duplicates, and internal conflicts across 2-5 candidate claim packets'). It clearly distinguishes itself by stating it reports conflict, never truth, which separates it from truth-assessment tools. This is a strong, specific purpose statement.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides clear context for when to use the tool (to measure conflicts across 2-5 claim packets) and what it guarantees (bounded runtime, no mutation). However, it does not explicitly mention when not to use it or name alternatives like prism.preflight or prism.synthesis_contract, so it lacks exclusions but still conveys the tool's niche.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and idempotentHint=true. The description adds crucial behavioral details beyond these: 'Deterministic and offline', 'reads packaged registry data only: no user-project files, no network, no credentials'. This tells the agent exactly what side effects (none) and data access patterns exist, providing significant added transparency without contradicting the annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences, each earning its place: the first states the core action and output, the second clarifies the safety and deterministic nature. No filler, no redundancy, and the most important information is front-loaded.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simple complexity, the description is sufficiently complete. It defines the output (claim-packet contract) and the input context (task). It also mentions constraints (offline, no credentials) and implies the tool is meant for preflight planning before measurement. The presence of an output schema means the description does not need to detail return values. A minor gap is that it does not specify any prerequisites or expected input format, but this is not critical for a preflight helper.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The schema has 0% description coverage, so the description carries the burden of explaining parameters. The description ties 'task' to the selection process and '3-5 useful perspectives' hints that max_perspectives controls the output count, but 'mode' is completely unexplained. It provides some semantic linkage but does not fully compensate for all three parameters, especially the mysterious 'mode' with a default of 'standard'.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses specific verbs ('Select' and 'return') and names the concrete outputs: '3-5 useful perspectives' and 'the claim-packet contract'. This clearly differentiates from siblings like prism.measure (which likely executes measurements) and prism.synthesis_contract (which may define the contract format rather than select perspectives). The scope is explicitly bounded to a preflight role.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides clear context for when this tool is appropriate: it is deterministic, offline, and reads only packaged registry data, making it safe for preflight use without external dependencies. However, it does not explicitly state when to use it over siblings like prism.measure or prism.synthesis_contract, nor does it give exclusions ('use X instead'). The usage guidance is implicit rather than explicit, so it falls short of a 5.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Return the rules the host must follow when writing the final answer: which conflicts to disclose, which distinct claims to preserve, and which shortcuts are prohibited. Deterministic; generates no prose.

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnly, idempotent, and non-destructive behaviors. The description adds 'Deterministic; generates no prose,' which discloses output behavior and reinforces the lack of side effects, providing value beyond the structured annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two concise sentences, front-loaded with the purpose. Every sentence adds value, and there is no extraneous content.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a tool with an output schema and two optional parameters, the description adequately covers the tool's purpose and deterministic nature. However, the lack of parameter explanations prevents a perfect score, as the agent may be unsure how to populate 'preflight' or 'measurement'.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, so the description must compensate for the 'preflight' and 'measurement' parameters. It does not explain their meaning or usage at all, leaving a significant gap. The description only covers the tool's output, not its inputs.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses a specific verb ('Return') and a clear resource (rules for the final answer), enumerating concrete content: conflicts to disclose, distinct claims to preserve, and prohibited shortcuts. It also distinguishes itself from sibling tools by emphasizing determinism and no prose, making its role unique.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description states the clear context: it provides rules the host must follow when writing the final answer. This gives a clear usage scenario, though it does not explicitly mention alternatives or when not to use it. Sibling tools are not referenced, but the context is sufficient for typical selection.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: preflight selects perspectives, measure evaluates conflicts, synthesis_contract defines output rules, and health checks the system. There is no overlap or ambiguity between them.
All names use consistent lowercase snake_case, but the syntactic pattern is mixed: preflight and measure are verbs, while synthesis_contract and health are nouns. This is a minor deviation from a strict verb_noun convention, but the names remain readable and predictable.
With only 4 tools, the server is tightly scoped around its purpose of claim-packet analysis and synthesis. Each tool is essential to the workflow, and the count is neither too sparse nor excessive.
The server covers the full lifecycle of the analysis process: selecting perspectives (preflight), measuring contradictions (measure), obtaining synthesis rules (synthesis_contract), and verifying system health (health). No critical operations are missing for the stated deterministic, offline analysis domain.
