ControlKeel

Overview

ControlKeel is a Model Context Protocol server that brings governed workflows to AI agents through policy validation, findings tracking, and review gates. It lets Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP clients enforce compliance checks and governance rules as they work, surfacing policy violations and maintaining an audit trail of decisions.

The server runs locally on your machine via npx -y @aryaminus/controlkeel with no authentication required. Built as an npm package, it communicates with your MCP client over stdio and launches immediately—no external services or credentials to configure. The latest release is v0.2.29, maintained at aryaminus/controlkeel on GitHub with 11 stars.

ControlKeel appears in the Security category on mcp.site and works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and other MCP-compatible clients. If you maintain ControlKeel, claim this listing to verify ownership and keep information up to date.
