review-gate-mcp

An MCP server that asks a human when it isn't sure.

Most extraction demos guess. This one implements the pattern that makes automation safe to run on documents that matter: fields extracted with high confidence flow through; anything uncertain is held in a review queue for a person to resolve - never silently guessed into your systems.

document ──▶ extract_with_gate ──▶ confident fields ──▶ your system

Run it

npm install
npm test          # end-to-end over real MCP stdio: extract -> hold -> human resolve

Add to Claude Code / Claude Desktop / Cursor (any MCP client):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "review-gate": { "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/review-gate-mcp/server.js"] }
  }
}

Then ask your agent to extract fields from a pasted document and watch what it does with the smudged one.

The point

The extractors here are deliberately transparent heuristics - swap in a model-backed extractor and the gate stays identical. The pattern is the product: a system that escalates its hard cases beats one that guesses them. This is the standard RavnLab builds automation to; the evaluation side of the same idea lives in ravnlab-eval-harness.
