What can you do with this server?

The lu-mcp-server provides tools for working with Lingua Universale (LU), a formal protocol verification language for AI agent communication. * Parse Protocol Definitions (lu_load_protocol): Load and parse .lu protocol text to extract structure including name, roles, steps, choices, and declared properties. * Verify Session Messages (lu_verify_message): Validate whether a message is correct at a given point in an ongoing session by replaying message history and checking the next intended message — catching violations like wrong sender, wrong turn, or incorrect message order. * Check Formal Properties (lu_check_properties): Statically verify declared safety properties such as always_terminates, no_deadlock, no_deletion, and all_roles_participate, with optional Lean 4 formal proof. * List Standard Library Templates (lu_list_templates): Browse 20 built-in verified protocol templates across 5 categories (communication, data, business, ai_ml, security), with optional category filtering.

Lingua Universale

A language for verified AI agent protocols.

PyPI Tests License: Apache 2.0 Zero Dependencies VS Code Discord

Try it in your browser -- no install needed. Watch AI agents live -- 3 agents on a verified protocol.

The Problem

Your AI agents talk to each other, but nothing guarantees they follow the rules. Wrong sender, wrong message order, missing steps -- and you only find out in production.

Lingua Universale (LU) is a type checker for AI agent conversations. You define the protocol, LU proves it's correct, and the runtime enforces it.

from cervellaswarm_lingua_universale import Protocol, ProtocolStep, MessageKind, SessionChecker, TaskRequest

# Define: who sends what, to whom, in what order
review = Protocol(name="Review", roles=("dev", "reviewer"), elements=(
    ProtocolStep(sender="dev", receiver="reviewer", message_kind=MessageKind.TASK_REQUEST),
    ProtocolStep(sender="reviewer", receiver="dev", message_kind=MessageKind.TASK_RESULT),
))

checker = SessionChecker(review)
checker.send("dev", "reviewer", TaskRequest(task_id="1", description="Review auth"))  # OK
checker.send("dev", "reviewer", TaskRequest(task_id="2", description="Oops"))         # ProtocolViolation!
#                                                                                      ^^^ wrong turn: reviewer must send next

The protocol says reviewer goes next. The runtime blocks it. Not because you trust the code -- because the session type makes it impossible.

Install

pip install cervellaswarm-lingua-universale

Or try it first: Playground (runs in your browser via Pyodide).

Write a Protocol

protocol DelegateTask:
    roles: supervisor, worker, validator

    supervisor asks worker to execute analysis
    worker returns result to supervisor
    supervisor asks validator to verify result

    when validator decides:
        pass:
            validator returns approval to supervisor
        fail:
            validator sends feedback to supervisor

    properties:
        always terminates
        no deadlock
        no deletion
        all roles participate

Then verify it:

lu verify delegate_task.lu

  [1/4] always_terminates  ... PROVED
  [2/4] no_deadlock        ... PROVED
  [3/4] no_deletion        ... PROVED
  [4/4] all_roles_participate ... PROVED

  All 4 properties PASSED.

Mathematical proof. Not a test that passes today and fails tomorrow.

CLI

lu check file.lu          # Parse and compile
lu verify file.lu         # Formal property verification
lu run file.lu            # Execute
lu lint file.lu           # 10 style and correctness rules
lu fmt file.lu            # Zero-config auto-formatter
lu chat --lang en         # Build a protocol conversationally
lu demo --lang it         # See the La Nonna demo
lu init --template NAME   # Scaffold from stdlib templates
lu visualize file.lu      # Generate Mermaid sequence diagram
lu mcp-audit --manifest t.json  # Audit MCP server protocols
lu repl                   # Interactive REPL
lu lsp                    # Start LSP server

CI Integration

Add protocol verification to your GitHub Actions workflow:

# .github/workflows/lu-check.yml
on:
  push:
    paths: ["**/*.lu"]

jobs:
  lu-check:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: actions/setup-python@v6
        with:
          python-version: "3.11"
      - run: pip install cervellaswarm-lingua-universale
      - run: lu lint protocols/
      - run: lu verify protocols/

Exit code is non-zero on violations -- works with any CI system.

How It Works

LU is built on multiparty session types (Honda, Yoshida, Carbone -- POPL 2008). Session types describe communication protocols as types: if two processes follow the same session type, they cannot deadlock, messages cannot arrive in the wrong order, and the conversation always terminates.

The pipeline:

.lu source → Tokenizer → Parser → AST → Spec Checker → Lean 4 Proofs → Python Codegen
                                           ↓
                                    PROVED or VIOLATED

LU doesn't replace your AI agent framework. It makes it safe. Like TypeScript for JavaScript -- you keep your tools, you add guarantees.

Examples

LU Debugger -- Live web app: 3 AI agents (Customer, Warehouse, Payment) communicate on a verified OrderProcessing protocol. Click "Break" to see a protocol violation blocked in real time. Source code.

See the examples/ directory:

Agent Orchestration -- 3 AI agents with nested choice, 8/8 properties proved
Live Runner -- Real Claude API agents on a verified protocol
Standard Library -- 20 verified protocols across 5 categories

Or try the interactive Colab notebook -- 2 minutes, zero setup.
