@rubric-protocol/mcp-server

Post-quantum AI compliance attestation as an MCP server. Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Continue, Zed, and any MCP-compatible host.

v2.0 — now with free local tier. No API key required to start attesting.

Install

npm install -g @rubric-protocol/mcp-server

Configure (Claude Desktop)

Edit claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rubric": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@rubric-protocol/mcp-server"],
      "env": { "RUBRIC_API_KEY": "optional-for-hcs-anchoring" }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. Rubric tools appear in the MCP menu.

Tiers

Free (no key)

• attest — PQ-signed Merkle leaves stored in ~/.rubric/local-bundles/
• verify — check local attestations
• framework_detect — detect applicable regulations offline
• cost_estimate — project monthly cost
• register_agent — request a free key to unlock HCS anchoring
• status — federation health

With API key (free developer tier)

Everything above, plus:

• HCS anchoring on Hedera mainnet (tamper-evident third-party timestamp)
• get_proof — ZK Merkle inclusion proofs (Noir/Barretenberg)

Request a key via the register_agent tool, or at https://rubric-protocol.com

Standard+ tier ($999/mo)

• compliance_tag — attach regulatory framework tags to bundles
• bundle_query — filter by leafType, agentId, time range
• 100K attestations/mo, overage $0.01 each

Enterprise ($9,999/mo) / Dedicated ($25K+/mo)

Higher throughput, SLA, dedicated federation capacity.

Regulatory coverage

EU AI Act (Articles 9–15, 17, 26, 49, 72, 73, Annexes IV/XI/XII), SR 11-7, OCC, FDIC, NIST AI RMF 1.0, TX TRAIGA, CO AI Act, HIPAA, EU DSA, NIS2, SEC, CFTC, ECOA Reg B, NYC LL144.

Tools (9 total)

• attest — attest an AI decision (local free, HCS with key)
• verify — verify attestation by ID
• get_proof — ZK Merkle inclusion proof
