hive-mcp-imprimatur

Imprimatur — the pre-attestation gate. A signed clearance bound to an inference before it runs. Four compliance pre-conditions are checked and Ed25519-signed at execution time, and an inference that cannot present a valid, unexpired clearance is refused.

A flight recorder proves what crashed. A clearance stops the takeoff.

Every other Hive primitive signs a receipt after the model runs. Imprimatur signs a clearance before it runs. It is the control, not the record.

Discipline: Imprimatur asserts pre_clearance_conditions_met. It never asserts legality. The enterprise defines policy; Hive enforces it and signs that the enforcement ran and passed.

This MCP server is a thin, read-only public shim over the live Imprimatur surface. Issuance (/clear) is ops-gated and intentionally not exposed here.

Streamable-HTTP MCP server. Point your client at the deployed /mcp endpoint:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "imprimatur": { "url": "https://hive-mcp-imprimatur.onrender.com/mcp" }
  }
}

Run locally:

npm install
node server.js
# POST http://localhost:3000/mcp

The four pre-conditions

1. model_approved — the model is on the approved list (composable with MiR).

2. inputs_eligible — the inputs are eligible for this context (composable with RCP).

3. context_permitted — the context/purpose is permitted.

4. boundary_authorized — the jurisdiction / data boundary is authorized.

All four must pass for a clearance to issue. The gate refuses anything that cannot present one.
