The Liminate Authoring MCP server helps AI agents author, validate, test, and understand Liminate Agreements — structured governance documents that control what agents are permitted to do.

• validate_agreement: Parse and semantically check a Liminate Agreement, returning parse/semantic errors, unbound evidence references, and a per-rule deontic analysis (permit/forbid/require/define).

• explain_clause: Break down each clause into plain English, detailing the verb, condition, rationale, temporal window (active/expired/future/unbounded), and any exceptions.

• draft_agreement: Assemble a new Agreement from structured rules (verb, condition, reason, unless, starting, until) or retrieve a vendored template by ID. Output is always validated before being returned.

• test_agreement: Run an Agreement against sample evidence to get a decision: blocked, incomplete (missing evidence), needs_review, or passed.

• list_templates: Discover available vendored templates (e.g., EDGAR revenue check, quarterly earnings brief, publication review, student assignment review, vendor invoice review), including their source and sample evidence.

• translate (paid, requires LIMINATE_API_KEY): Convert a compliance document (plain text, markdown, or URL) into an Agreement draft via the Liminate platform API, returning a fidelity manifest for human review before any installation.
