cladding

For an organization to trust AI with its code, three things must hold — trust, traceability, and stability at scale. cladding wraps your AI coding agent: your intent goes in before it writes, and the result is verified against your spec after, so those three are earned, not assumed. First L4 implementation of the Ironclad standard.

Warning. Serious findings were identified. Review the full report before connecting. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

These names and descriptions are the publisher's own, read from the source code. We print them as written. Our assessment is the findings above, not this list.

clad_prepare_init
clad_stage_init
clad_init
clad_prepare_clarify
clad_clarify
clad_resolve_onboarding_review
clad_list_features
clad_get_feature
clad_run_check

Runs `clad check` drift detection. Returns a TERSE report by default (pass, error/warn counts, top 3 blocking findings) to keep the agent loop cheap; pass verbose:true for every finding incl. info-severity + suggestions.

clad_run_gate
clad_verdict
clad_get_context
clad_get_working_set
clad_get_impact
clad_get_graph
clad_changelog
clad_get_events

Reads .cladding/events.log and returns the most recent entries.

clad_prepare_spec_edit

Returns a projection revision and the canonical input revisions required for one typed operation batch; it never writes.

clad_edit_spec
clad_begin

Starts a feature cycle through feature.begin, saving its one pre-cycle checkpoint and derived inventory together.

clad_create_feature
clad_resolve_design_impact
clad_author_oracle
clad_create_scenario
clad_link_capability
clad_ingest_receipt

Validates and create-only stores one signed portable receipt. Trust and expected digest context come from the registered host, never tool input.

clad_signoff

Records asserted audit or UAT history, and with verified: true and a registered issuer asks the human to confirm through an elicitation form before signing a portable receipt; without confirmation it returns HUMAN_REQUIRED.

// known CVEs in dependencies1 high

Tool annotations

20/27 tools have annotations

Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.

All four hints declared on every tool

27/27 tools missing one or more hints — clad_prepare_init (missing: openWorldHint); clad_stage_init (missing: openWorldHint); clad_init (missing: openWorldHint), +24 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.

For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.

Destructive tools are labelled

3 tools perform destructive updates without destructiveHint — clad_prepare_init deletes at line 565 (rmSync(path, {force: true})); clad_stage_init deletes at line 565 (rmSync(path, {force: true})); clad_prepare_clarify deletes at line 565 (rmSync(path, {force: true}))

Add destructiveHint:true to any tool whose handler calls .delete(), .upsert(), .update(), unlink, rm, DELETE, DROP, REPLACE INTO, or any operation that overwrites existing data.

No hardcoded API keys

1 live-looking API key in source: 1 Stripe secret (live)

Move secrets to environment variables (process.env.X) or your secret manager.

Production dependencies are patched

0 critical, 1 high severity in production deps — smol-toml@1.6.1 (high)

Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
// improvement guidance — verified publishers only
We have 5 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
