Here youโll find a suite of experiments and tools, some just getting started, some ready to test, all open to feedback and community input. Each project is presented as a flask, representing different stages of experimental development. Learn more about flask status โ. Flasks are standalone services, libraries or tools, that can be used independently or together to build more complex applications. Explore the flasks below or get in touch if you want to contribute, try things early, or shape what comes next.Documentation Index

Our current experiments focus on Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools and AI security. These tools help developers build safer, more controlled AI applications with proper identity and authorization.MCP Hub
A hosted MCP Manager unifying and orchstrating multiple MCP servers, focusing on auth and security
Guardrail Proxy
Wrap any MCP server in a configurable and flexible security layer
Bodyguard
LLM-based threat detection for prompts and tool calls
Pass-through Proxy
Middleware hook system for MCP servers that powers guardrails and more
Civic Knowledge
AI assistant for the optimisation of internal operations and processes

๐ Concepts & Architecture
