Clevername

Clevername is a local MCP server for AI agent governance: security scanning, bring-your-own-key routing, audit logging and Council approvals.

What you can do

• Govern AI agent activity: security scanning, BYOK model routing, audit logging and Council approval steps, per the registry description.
• No tool list is published, so the exact operations an assistant can call are not documented here.
• Connects over stdio as a local process, with an optional streamable-http package variant.

When to use it

Consider it when you want an assistant's agent activity to pass through governance controls such as security scanning, key routing, audit trails or approval gates, rather than calling model providers directly.

Requirements

Runs as a local process on the user's machine (desktop only, not web-executable), installed from the npm package. Optionally set the CLEVERNAME_API_KEY environment variable with a gateway token from the provider's developer settings; if omitted, a device login flow is used instead.
