MCPpedia last refreshed this data
Rigour MCP Server is an MCP server that quality gates for AI agents. Lint, test, build checks with memory persistence. Its tool list has not been published yet over stdio and http, requires no API key, and scores 86/100 on MCPpedia's security, maintenance and efficiency rubric.
Config is the same across clients — only the file and path differ.

Your AI agent just tried to commit an AWS secret. Rigour blocked it in <100ms.
Agent Transaction Firewall (v6): treat the agent as an untrusted proposer. Rigour decides—deterministically—what it may write, run, call, and ship. No AI judge on the allow/deny path.

Then install hooks so writes are checked in real time:
npx @rigour-labs/cli hooks init --tool cursor # or claude, cline, windsurf
# or via MCP: rigour_hooks_init
Short answer: quality gates + DLP + mediated rigour_run paths run when MCP/hooks are installed. It does not yet sit in front of every third-party MCP tool (GitHub/Slack/etc.)—that gateway is designed but not the default proxy.
| Surface | Automatic once installed? | What you get |
|---|---|---|
MCP server (@rigour-labs/mcp) | Yes for Rigour tools the agent calls | rigour_check, Fix Packets, memory DLP, agent register, Studio events |
rigour_run / rigour_run_supervised | Yes when those tools are used | Typed argv allowlist (no free-form shell: true), fail-closed human arbitration (timeout = deny), one-time Studio token |
| IDE hooks (Cursor/Claude/Cline/Windsurf) | Yes after hooks init | Per-write checks (secrets, imports, size, protected paths). If agents are registered, set RIGOUR_AGENT_ID so scope binds to the writer (fail-closed; no union-allow) |
rigour_agent_register | Yes when called | Rejects **/* / sensitive globs unless operator scopes or RIGOUR_ALLOW_AGENT_SCOPE_AUTHORITY=1 |
| CLI firewall | On demand / CI | firewall adversarial, firewall transact, firewall admit |
| Third-party MCP proxy | Not yet | Capability broker + McpGateway interfaces exist; Rigour is not yet a MITM for all MCP servers |
