Details
The article explains that when using Claude Desktop with MCP tools, there is no record of what Claude did with those tools unless the user builds the auditing functionality themselves. The asqav-mcp server solves this problem by sitting alongside the user's other servers and signing every tool call made by Claude. This creates a chain of signatures that can be used to audit Claude's actions. The server can also be configured to set policies and block certain tool calls from being executed, providing additional governance over Claude's behavior.
