killswitch-mcp
MCP server for killswitch-ai — give Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-capable client a live window into your egress guardrails.
Install
pip install killswitch-mcp
This installs killswitch-ai and mcp automatically.
Start the server
killswitch-mcp
The server speaks MCP over stdio and waits for a client to connect.
Client configuration
Claude Desktop
Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows), then restart Claude Desktop:
{
"mcpServers": {
"killswitch": {
"command": "killswitch-mcp"
}
}
}
Cursor
Open Settings → Cursor Settings → MCP, click Add new global MCP server, and paste:
{
"mcpServers": {
"killswitch": {
"command": "killswitch-mcp"
}
}
}
Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
scan |
Pre-flight scan text before sending to an LLM — returns findings metadata, never echoes input |
get_status |
Current enforcement mode and headline event counts |
get_stats |
Full aggregate stats from the local audit database |
recent_findings |
Recent audit findings with type, severity, and decision |
get_policy |
Active killswitch.yml policy (credentials stripped) |
All tools are read-only. None write to disk or affect any running killswitch.install() session.
Important
The MCP server is a voluntary, opt-in guardrail. For automatic inline enforcement that intercepts every LLM call regardless of what an agent requests, use killswitch.install() in your Python process.
