Conarium

The site lives at conarium.dev; this repository is the product.

Check it before you read the rest

Nothing below has to be taken on trust. There is a live receipt chain; verify it against its public key on your own machine, with no account and no data of yours:

npm i @conarium-ai/core
curl -fsS https://demo.conarium.dev/proof/chain.jsonl   -o chain.jsonl
curl -fsS https://demo.conarium.dev/proof/key.pem       -o key.pem
curl -fsS https://demo.conarium.dev/proof/key.pem.keyid -o key.pem.keyid
npx conarium-verify chain.jsonl --pubkey key.pem

note: tail truncation is not visible — this run did not see receipts deleted from the
end of the file. Pin with --expect-count, --expect-last-hash, or --anchor-check.
ok: 3 receipt(s) verified (3 with undeclared model, 3 with undeclared client)

Exit code 0. The three receipts are one ordinary read, one where five email addresses and a card number were masked before the model saw them, and one refusal. Change any field and the recomputed hash stops matching the stored one — exit 10. Change the signature instead — exit 13.

The verifier is a single file that imports nothing from the package it is checking, so a compromised Conarium cannot talk it into a passing result. Note that it volunteers what it did not check, in the first line of its own output, before the good news.

Limitations

What this repository has not done is in LIMITATIONS.md (Türkçe). The dated comparison page is conarium.dev/compare.html — that is the only copy; this repo does not keep a second one.

Standards

draft-dogru-scitt-disclosure-evidence is an individual submission. Not adopted by an IETF working group, and it carries no formal standing — an Internet-Draft is a dated public record, not a standard. It is published so the receipt format can be implemented without us. Source files live in standards/.

👁️ The Problem

Point Cursor or Copilot at a production database and it drinks the raw stream—SSNs, credit cards, salaries, and live keys. One rogue prompt can expose your most sensitive tables. Security teams simply can't allow that.

🛡️ The Solution: Conarium

Conarium acts as a high-performance MCP (Model Context Protocol) Proxy. It sits directly between the AI Assistant and your databases, evaluating policies in milliseconds to enforce row limits and mask PII (Personally Identifiable Information) on the wire.

The AI gets the context it needs to write code, but never sees your secrets.

Key Features

• Inline PII Masking: Emails, IDs, cards, and secrets are redacted in the response stream ([MASKED_PII] / [MASKED_SECRET]) before the model sees a single character.

• Allow / Deny Lists: Whitelist what AI can access. Your secrets and financials tables stay invisible.

• Row Caps: Hard per-query limits. Prevent the silent exfiltration of millions of rows.

• Immutable Audit Ledger: Every access is logged (who, what, when, rows, decision). Hash-chained and PII-safe — no raw PII ever written to the logs.

• Verifiable Receipts: Ed25519-signed, independently verifiable receipts — see below.

• Per-person masking profiles: what to mask for an AI agent is not what to mask for the data controller. A named profile relaxes masking for one identified person, and the receipt records which profile applied — see below.

• Coverage & Reconciliation: a signed coverage declaration over the receipt chain (conarium-coverage), plus two-sided reconciliation against the database's own query counters (conarium-reconcile) — DB-recorded activity that no receipt covers is surfaced instead of staying invisible.

• 100% Self-Hosted: Runs entirely on your infrastructure. Nothing we ship transmits your data anywhere: raw protected values stay inside your perimeter, and what reaches your AI client is the policy-approved disclosure — whose exact bytes the receipt records (disclosure.hash). Saying your data never leaves at all would be the wrong claim: releasing a governed disclosure to an assistant is the job. The gateway makes exactly one outbound request that is not yours: at startup it asks the public npm registry whether a newer version exists, and prints one line to stderr if so. It sends nothing about you — no identifier, no config, no counts — and a remote gateway nobody looks at for weeks is the reason it exists at all. Disable it with CONARIUM_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1, or point it at your internal mirror with CONARIUM_NPM_REGISTRY. It has a 2-second timeout and never blocks or fails startup. We list it here because a governance product that makes an undisclosed outbound connection has already lost the argument.

• MCP-Native: Works out of the box with Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and Codex.

Verifiable Receipts

Conarium can emit portable receipts (Art. 12 / 19 shaped) that a third party verifies offline with a single file — no Conarium install required.

Official claim (do not widen): A Conarium Receipt proves that the records still in the file have not been altered, reordered, or backdated after they were created, and that none were removed from the middle of the chain (prevHash / seq). It does not prove they were correct at the moment of creation. It also cannot, by itself, prove that records were not dropped from the end: a shorter leftover chain is still internally consistent. Catching tail truncation needs a pin from outside the file — --expect-count, --expect-last-hash, an OpenTimestamps anchor, or conarium-reconcile against the database's own counters.

(TR) Conarium Makbuzu, dosyada hâlâ duran kayıtların oluşturulduktan sonra değiştirilmediğini, ortadan silinmediğini, yeniden sıralanmadığını ve geriye dönük tarihlenmediğini kanıtlar. Oluşturma anında doğru olduğunu kanıtlamaz. Sondan kesmeyi tek başına göremez: kalan zincir tutarlıdır, yalnızca kısadır.

# Generate an Ed25519 keypair (private PEM + .pub.pem + .keyid sidecars).
# The .keyid sidecars are not optional: without them the verifier answers 13
# for every receipt, which reads like tampering and is not.
npx conarium-init

export CONARIUM_AUDIT_SIGNING_KEY=./audit-ed25519.pem

# Verify a receipt chain (exit 0 = the records *in the file* are intact)
npx conarium-verify ./receipts.jsonl --pubkey ./audit-ed25519.pub.pem

# Pin length / last hash if you need to catch records dropped from the end
npx conarium-verify ./receipts.jsonl --pubkey ./audit-ed25519.pub.pem --expect-count 3

# Optional: check OpenTimestamps sidecar (pending → exit 0 + warning; missing → 14)
npx conarium-verify ./receipts.jsonl --pubkey ./audit-ed25519.pub.pem --anchor-check

A second verifier, Go and the standard library only, is in verifiers/go. go build -o conarium-verify . then the same arguments as conarium-verify; test-vectors/ is the contract.

Opt-in anchoring: CONARIUM_ANCHOR_SINK=opentimestamps. Upgrade pending proofs later with npx conarium-anchor-upgrade ./audit.jsonl.anchors.jsonl. The client is in-tree (Node crypto + calendar HTTPS). It does not install javascript-opentimestamps. See LIMITATIONS.md.

Per-person masking profiles

Masking that is correct for an AI agent is wrong for the person who owns the data. The owner asking "which customer owes the most" needs the name; the assistant summarising revenue does not. Answering that with a global on/off switch would disable the product's only real guarantee, so masking resolves per person:

{
  "policy": {
    "allowTables": ["zion.customers", "zion.orders"],
    "maskColumns": ["*.customer_name", "*.email", "*.phone"],  // default: everyone
    "maxRows": 100,

    "profiles": {
      // The controller sees customer names; email and phone stay masked.
      "controller-full": { "maskColumns": ["*.email", "*.phone"], "maxRows": 1000 }
    },
    "actorProfiles": { "emekcan": "controller-full" }
  }
}

Deliberately narrow, because this is the one feature that can loosen protection:

• A profile may override maskColumns, maxRows and maskLabelledNames — and nothing else. Table, tool and connector permissions stay global; a profile can never widen what is reachable, only what is legible within it. protectedColumns is not overlayable: a profile that could drop it would be a per-person back door.

• Per-user tokens only. An actor authenticated with a shared token never receives a profile. "Whoever holds this string sees unmasked PII" is precisely the failure this product exists to prevent.

• Fail-closed everywhere else: no actor, unlisted actor, or a profile name that does not exist all fall back to the base policy, never to a wider one.

• The content scanners still run. Email / national-ID / phone / card / IBAN / secret detectors are not overridable at all, so those stay masked in free text no matter which profile applied. IBAN is accepted only when ISO 7064 mod-97-10 holds. Passport MRZ (TD3, 7-3-1 check digits) is on by default and likewise cannot be turned off by a profile — only policy.detectors.mrz: false on the base policy opts it out. IP addresses are off until policy.detectors.ip: true. Name masking is the one detector a profile can switch off (maskLabelledNames: false), because the controller reading their own customer list is the case this feature exists for.

• The receipt says which profile applied — policy.id becomes conarium.policy/<profile>, inside the signed hash. An access made under a relaxed profile cannot later be presented as having been fully masked. This is what keeps the audit story honest: the point was never "nobody sees PII", it is "every access is governed, and the evidence says under which rules."

Names in free text

Every other identifier has a shape. An email has an @, a national ID has a checksum, a card has a length — a regex decides, and the decision reproduces. A name has no shape, so maskColumns was the only thing catching one, and a name typed into a free-text note reached the model verbatim.

Two deterministic passes close the part of that gap that can be closed honestly:

What this does not do, deliberately: a bare name in running prose is not detected. "Ahmet called yesterday" goes through. Catching that needs NER — a model, a dictionary and a confidence score — and every decision this gateway makes is meant to be reproducible from the rule alone, by someone who does not trust us. A probabilistic masker would also be a probabilistic receipt. Tools that do run NER (Presidio-based ones, for instance) cover more entity types; they buy that with a confidence threshold. Neither position dominates — this one is stated so an auditor knows which one they are holding.

Still not caught by content scanners — by design, not by omission: street addresses and bare names. An address detector cannot tell "Atatürk Caddesi No:15" from "Atatürk Barajı" without a gazetteer. A name detector cannot tell Deniz / Güneş / Umut from the words. Both would need a dictionary or a model; this gateway's decisions are deterministic. Close those gaps with maskColumns (column names) and conarium-suggest-policy (a name-based guess that does not write your config).

IP addresses are caught when you turn them on (policy.detectors.ip: true). They are off by default: a server IP is not always personal data, and a mask you cannot disable breaks SOC work. 1.2.3.4 is structurally a valid IPv4 address; when the detector is on it is masked, even if you meant a version number. Dates (13.08.2026) and amounts (1.250,00) are not IPv4.

Passport numbers in free text are not caught. MRZ is: two TD3 lines × 44 characters, P in position 1, 7-3-1 check digits. A checksum miss is not an MRZ and is left alone. TD1/TD2 are not implemented.

HTML @ / @, JSON \u0040, and %40 are masked when they sit inside an email-shaped token. A lone 5@ store or C:\path\u0040abc is left alone. One decode pass; @ is not chased.

A TCKN split across two similarly named fields on the same row (tckn_1 / tckn_2) is masked when the concatenation checksums. Unrelated columns are not combined.

Zero-width characters, fullwidth digits / ＠, and unicode dashes are stripped or mapped to ASCII before the detectors — that pass is not a general encoding decoder; wrapped base64/hex tokens inside a field are masked only when they decode to an existing detector hit.

Scan length. A single text field longer than policy.scanCharCap (default 16 384; env CONARIUM_SCAN_CHAR_CAP overrides) is replaced with [MASKED_PII] as a whole, even when it contains no identifier. The scanner is not skipped: skipping would mean a long note, JSON blob, or log line is the way past masking. This is a usability setting. Raising it grows scan cost quadratically — a 40 KB alphanumeric field was ~1 s on the unbounded email regex before that regex was bounded. maskedCount records that a decision was made.

Carry-over ignores values under three characters (a two-character value matches everywhere and would shred the output) and matches on Unicode word boundaries, so Ali is masked in Ali onayladı but not inside Kalite.

Coverage & reconciliation (bypass detection)

Receipts prove what went through the gateway. Reconciliation asks the database what it saw, and compares:

# One-sided: signed coverage declaration over a period + declared scope
npx conarium-coverage ./declaration.json --pubkey ./audit-ed25519.pub.pem --receipts ./receipts.jsonl

# Two-sided: reconcile the DB's own per-role query counters against receipts.
# Snapshots come from pg_stat_statements (scripts/pg-snapshot.sql), taken at
# window start and window end with a dedicated DB role per gateway instance.
npx conarium-reconcile --before before.json --after after.json --receipts ./receipts.jsonl
# exit 0  = every DB query pattern in the window is attributable to a receipt for
#           the same table (object attribution, not per-statement coverage —
#           see LIMITATIONS.md)
# exit 40 = the DB recorded activity no receipt covers — the gateway may have
#           been bypassed, or the receipt sink failed

The language is deliberate: absence is reported as "access NOT RECORDED" / "not receipted", never "no access occurred" — an absent record is ambiguous by nature, and a tool that pretends otherwise is lying to its auditor.

Run against our own production ERP the day it shipped, including a real bypass we performed on ourselves and the tool caught: docs/dogfood/2026-08-06-reconcile.md.

Full schema, exit codes, and known gaps: docs/RECEIPT-SPEC.md.

Countersigning (the part you cannot do for yourself)

Receipts prove what went through the gateway. Reconciliation proves nothing went around it. Both are yours, self-hosted, and signed by your own key — which is exactly what an auditor discounts: you kept the record, you signed it, and you stored it. A countersignature answers that by putting a second party on the same chain head.

The service is in this package, so you can run your own and sign your own heads — useful for a second internal custodian, and pointless against the objection above. What makes it worth anything is that the signer is not you.

# Run the endpoint (refuses to start without a signing key or a token file)
CONARIUM_ANCHOR_TOKENS=./anchor.tokens.json \
CONARIUM_ANCHOR_SIGNING_KEY=./anchor.pem \
CONARIUM_ANCHOR_BASE_URL=https://anchor.example.com \
npx conarium-anchor-service

# Verify a countersignature you were given — offline, no network, no package
npx conarium-countersign-verify ./record.json --pubkey ./anchor.pub.pem
# exit 0  = signature valid (and inclusion valid if a proof or --log-url was given)
# exit 13 = signature invalid / unknown keyId
# exit 14 = inclusion proof present and false
# exit 15 = the log could NOT be checked — deliberately not the same as 14

The log is a hash chain: entries are appended, never rewritten, and an OTS timestamp covers the head rather than each submission. What a countersignature proves — and, just as importantly, what it does not — is written out in docs/COUNTERSIGN.md, together with what a leaked signing key would cost.

⚠️ Conarium does not operate a public countersigning endpoint yet. Until it does, this is code you can run, not a service you can buy.

Implementing the format yourself

The receipt is meant to outlive this implementation, so it ships with conformance vectors — twelve frozen cases plus a machine-readable manifest in test-vectors/:

npm run test:vectors     # our verifier against the frozen cases

Point your own verifier at each receipts.jsonl, pass the arguments listed in manifest.json, and compare the exit code. expected-hashes.json gives the canonical JCS → SHA-256 hashes so you can check your canonicalisation without needing our private key, which is deliberately not published.

The vectors found two things in this repository on their first run: a schema check that reported a structurally invalid receipt as tampered, and a wrong assumption of ours about unsigned receipts. Both are now frozen as cases 007 and 008.

Anchoring your chain (optional)

conarium-stamp anchors a file to the OpenTimestamps calendars, and conarium-anchor-upgrade fills in the Bitcoin block height once it lands. Those two are all most setups need.

If you would rather expose anchoring as a small service — for several gateways, or to hand an auditor a stable URL — bin/conarium-anchor-service.mjs is one: it submits hashes, retains proofs, serves the raw .ots at a permanent path, and upgrades pending anchors on a timer.

It is code you run, not a service we operate — there is no hosted instance to sign up for. It also serves the raw proof precisely so a third party can verify with the reference OpenTimestamps client and ignore the service entirely. An anchoring endpoint you have to trust would defeat the purpose of anchoring.

Signing is fail-closed: set CONARIUM_AUDIT_SIGNING_KEY and/or CONARIUM_AUDIT_HMAC_KEY, or explicitly CONARIUM_AUDIT_UNSIGNED=1 for throwaway setups. Key rotation: keep prior public PEMs in CONARIUM_AUDIT_TRUST_PUBKEYS (, / ; separated). After the first signed audit line, every later line must carry sig.

Where this sits among similar projects

Conarium is not the first project to produce signed, verifiable receipts for AI activity. Acta, Emilia Protocol, AuthProof, Agent Receipts and Invariant SVR all do a form of this, and some are ahead of us on standardisation — Acta and Emilia both have IETF Internet-Drafts. Related research: Aegon (arXiv 2604.06693), Decentralised Trust Layers (ACM Web Conf 2026), and ISO/IEC TS 27560:2023 for signed consent records.

Those receipts attest to what an agent did. A Conarium receipt attests to what the model was prevented from seeing — because the component that masks the data is the same component that signs the record. Enforcement and evidence are one part here, not two systems that have to be reconciled.

What we will defend: Conarium is the only implementation we are aware of that combines all three of (1) inline enforcement (policy + masking), (2) a portable, offline-verifiable receipt of that enforcement, and (3) coverage reconciliation — checking the database's own query counters against the receipt chain, so access that bypassed the gateway is surfaced instead of staying invisible. Signing receipts without enforcing is common; enforcing without portable receipts is common; reconciling both sides against the data source's own bookkeeping is the part we have not found elsewhere. Measured end to end on a real operating company's live ERP — 121,374 records, 121,366 identities masked, 485,496 fields masked, zero leaked to the model (Governance Report 001).

What that number is, and what it is not. It comes from a batch run against our own company's ERP, and what backs it is a hash-chained audit file of 123 lines whose arithmetic you can re-add yourself and whose chain was re-verified 17 days later. What does not back it is a receipt chain: that run emitted audit entries, not signed portable receipts, and its actor is a batch service identity, not a person. So if you ask "show me the receipts for those 485,496 fields", the honest answer is that they do not exist — the receipt chain is a separate and much smaller measurement. Scale and offline verifiability are two different claims here, and we would rather draw that line ourselves than have you find it. The mechanism is verifiable without trusting us; this particular figure is our own measurement, and Governance Report 001 lists its limits.

That claim is hedged on purpose, and docs/PRIOR-ART.md is the evidence behind it: ten projects checked on 6 August 2026, what each one has, the closest academic prior art (Sello / Notarized Agents, which names this gap better than we did), and nine things we could not verify. If you know of an implementation combining all three, open an issue and it will be corrected.

🏗️ Architecture (The Trifecta)

Conarium operates on a strict tripartite architecture, balancing power between three pillars:

graph LR
    A([AI Assistant\nCursor / Copilot]) -- "MCP Query" --> B{The Gateway\nConarium Proxy};
    B -- "Intercept & Parse" --> C[The Engine\nGovernance & Regex];
    C -- "Execute Query" --> D[(Your Database\nPostgres / SQL Server / Oracle)];
    D -- "Raw Data" --> C;
    C -- "Mask & Cap" --> B;
    B -- "Sanitized Data" --> A;
    C -. "Write Log" .-> E[The Ledger\nAudit DB];
    
    style A fill:#05070f,stroke:#5a8cff,stroke-width:2px,color:#fff
    style B fill:#05070f,stroke:#ff6f80,stroke-width:2px,color:#fff
    style C fill:#05070f,stroke:#6fe0e0,stroke-width:2px,color:#fff
    style D fill:#05070f,stroke:#f2d79a,stroke-width:2px,color:#fff
    style E fill:#05070f,stroke:#838dad,stroke-width:2px,color:#fff

1. The Gateway: A proxy that speaks fluently to LLM assistants.

2. The Engine: Evaluates JSON policies, regex scans, and row caps in milliseconds.

3. The Ledger: An immutable audit log recording every query and decision.

🚀 Quick Start

# 1. Install
npm i @conarium-ai/core

# 2. Write a fail-closed skeleton (config + Ed25519 pair + .keyid sidecars)
npx conarium-init
export CONARIUM_AUDIT_SIGNING_KEY="$PWD/audit-ed25519.pem"

# 3. Check the install before trusting it
npx conarium-doctor

# 4. Point the generated conarium.config.json at your read-only DSN,
#    fill policy.allowTables, then run the governed MCP gateway
npx conarium

Step 3 is not decoration. A missing config file does not stop the gateway — it starts with zero connectors and governs nothing — and a connector that fails to connect is logged, not raised. conarium-doctor names both, exits 1 when something is wrong so it can gate a deployment, and never prints a secret, so its output is safe to paste into an issue.

git clone https://github.com/dogrucanemek-alt/conarium.git
cd conarium
npm install && npm run build
node bin/conarium-init.mjs
node bin/conarium-doctor.mjs --no-net
npm start

conarium-init refuses to overwrite existing files unless you pass --force. It never prints the private key — only its path.

Desktop shortcut for the console

The policy editor is npx conarium-console. It still binds 127.0.0.1 and still requires a token. These two commands only add a door on the desktop:

npx conarium-console --install-shortcut
npx conarium-console --uninstall-shortcut

Double-click starts the same console, waits until the port is listening, then opens your browser. The token is not put in the URL; a one-time nonce (≤30s) is exchanged for a session cookie. If a shortcut with that name already exists, a -2 suffix is used instead of overwriting.

Export CONARIUM_CONSOLE_TOKEN before --install-shortcut so the launcher can read it from ~/.conarium/console.token (created 0600). The shortcut file itself does not contain the token.

The shortcut uses assets/conarium-mark.ico / .icns / -512.png, all from the same SVG. If those files are missing the shortcut is still created and the command warns.

The console Makbuzlar tab lists signed receipts from audit.receiptSink (newest first) and shows the same receipt HTML as demo.conarium.dev/proof. It verifies the hash chain and writes zincir sağlam or kırık (satır N). If the sink is empty or unset, it says so — it does not invent a sample receipt. Audit Logs remain the unsigned playground trail; they are not receipts.

When the package is on npm, the same binaries will ship in the tarball (conarium-init, conarium-doctor, conarium-verify, conarium-suggest-policy). Until then, run them from this repository as above.

Before you file a bug: run the doctor

conarium-doctor checks the things that fail quietly. Two of them matter most: a missing config file does not stop the gateway — it starts with zero connectors and governs nothing — and a connector that cannot connect is logged, not raised, so the process looks healthy while serving nothing. The doctor also catches the missing <pubkey>.keyid sidecar, which makes every receipt verify as 13 (reads like tampering, isn't).

It exits 0 when clean and 1 when something is wrong, so it can gate a deployment. It never prints a secret — passwords, tokens and key material are reported as shape only (postgresql://appuser@db.internal:5432/prod (password set, not shown)), which means the output is safe to paste into an issue or an email.

Conarium speaks MCP over stdio, so your AI assistant launches it as a command. Add this to your MCP client config (e.g. Cursor):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "conarium": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "--package=@conarium-ai/core", "conarium", "--config", "/path/to/your/conarium.config.json"]
    }
  }
}

⚙️ Configuration (Policy as Code)

Control access using a simple conarium.json policy file:

{
  "maxRows": 50,
  "allowTables": ["public.customers", "public.orders"],
  "denyTables": ["public.secrets", "public.financials"],
  "maskColumns": ["email", "ssn", "*.card", "*.api_key"],
  "protectedColumns": ["*.email", "customers.tckn"],
  "allowConnectors": ["postgres-main", "docs"]
}

Anything not in allowTables is denied by default; matched maskColumns are redacted to [MASKED_PII] before the data ever reaches the model.

protectedColumns uses the same glob syntax. Every pattern is also masked in the result. In addition, that column may not appear in a predicate (WHERE, HAVING, JOIN … ON, ORDER BY, GROUP BY) or a derived SELECT expression — the query is refused. A bare SELECT email is still allowed and comes back masked. Omit the field and behaviour is unchanged. A profile cannot set it. mssql / oracle refuse to boot if the field is non-empty: those gates cannot walk predicate positions, and this product does not claim a rule it cannot enforce.

policy.dialect selects the SQL gate the query tool uses: postgres (omitted default), mssql, or oracle. It is the operator's declaration — Conarium does not guess the dialect from the statement. A typo or mysql rejects the config.

Connectors are fail-closed. allowConnectors is a strict allow-list: if it is missing or empty, no connector is permitted (previously an empty list meant "allow all"). If you configure connectors, you must list them here — otherwise the server refuses to start and tells you exactly which field to add. denyConnectors still takes precedence over allowConnectors.

policy.detectors and policy.scanCharCap

Identity detectors — TCKN, card, IBAN, email — cannot be switched off. A config that tries (detectors: { tckn: false }) is rejected at load. That is the product: masking that a bank can disable from a JSON file is not masking.

{
  "scanCharCap": 32768,
  "detectors": { "ip": true }
}

policy.customPatterns

Formats the built-in detectors do not know — a bank customer number, a house account code — can be registered as extra rules on the same scanner. This is not a second masking path and it does not replace maskColumns.

Each rule needs a name (what the receipt records), a pattern, optional column globs, and a mask label. An optional sample is what conarium-doctor tries the compiled pattern against — compile success is not a catch. A broken or ReDoS-shaped pattern rejects the config; the pattern and the sample are never written to logs, receipts, or doctor output.

{
  "customPatterns": [
    {
      "name": "teb-hesap",
      "pattern": "HSP-[0-9]{8}",
      "columns": ["*.hesap_no"],
      "label": "[MASKED_HESAP]"
    }
  ]
}

Quantifiers must be bounded ({8}, {4,12}). +, *, nested groups and lookaround are rejected at load. A rule names a format you already know; it does not invent one.

conarium-suggest-policy --sql schema.sql prints a maskColumns guess from column names (*name*, *address*, *tckn*, …). It does not write your config. The first line of the output says so.

🗺️ Roadmap

Conarium is early access — and honest about what's real:

Shipping now: governed MCP gateway (stdio + HTTP) · deterministic PII masking, including labelled names in free text · allow/deny + row caps · per-person masking profiles · immutable hash-chained audit ledger · Ed25519-signed receipt per access with an offline verifier · signed coverage declarations · two-sided reconciliation against the database's own counters · OpenTimestamps anchoring and an optional anchoring service · conformance vectors · SQL gate: Postgres, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle (MySQL is not implemented; Oracle synonyms and database links are not resolved — see LIMITATIONS) · Postgres, Supabase, docs, OpenAPI, Jira and Slack connectors · conarium-init / conarium-doctor via npx (@conarium-ai/core).

Next: consent binding (spec published, no code — patent review first) · a second independent implementation of the receipt format · per-user identity bound to an identity provider rather than an operator token map.

Deliberately not planned, so nobody waits for it:

• LLM-based "semantic" masking. The gate is deterministic on purpose. A probabilistic mask would make a probabilistic receipt, which is not a receipt.

• Hosted cloud console. Self-hosted is the claim; a hosted console would put us in the data path we tell you we are not in.

• SOC 2. It audits organisations that hold customer data. We never receive yours. If that ever stops being true, this line changes first.

Known gaps: LIMITATIONS.md, the README above, docs/RECEIPT-SPEC.md, docs/BENCHMARK.md, and docs/API-STABILITY.md.
