> Your agent ran for a week. pod compiles what it actually did into the smallest policy it needs.
>
> 让 AI Agent 只拥有它真正需要的权限——从真实行为编译最小权限策略。

**Record → compile → enforce → prove.**

Most agent security tools stop at one of two places: a scanner that tells you what your agent *could* touch, or a gateway that asks you to *hand-write* a policy. pod closes the loop — run your agent in record-only mode for a few days, compile a least-privilege policy from its real tool calls, enforce it, and keep tamper-evident evidence for everything that ran.

```text
record real calls ──▶ compile least-privilege policy ──▶ enforce (deny > approve > allow)
       │                        │                                  │
       │                        │                                  ▼
       │                        │                    ┌──────────────────────────┐
       └── SHA-256 hash chain ───┴───────────────────▶│ tamper-evident audit     │
          (every call, hashes only)                  │ verify / export evidence │
                                                     └──────────────────────────┘
```

## 中文速览

- **不是又一个 MCP 网关**：网关让你手写策略；pod 从 agent 的真实行为里**编译**出最小权限策略。
- **闭环**：`pod record`（只录不拦）→ `pod policy draft`（生成策略 + 与基线 diff）→ 人工复核 → `pod serve`（执法）。
- **证据**：每一次工具调用进入 SHA-256 哈希链，可校验、可导出为证据包（敏感内容只存哈希）。
- **本地优先**：策略、审计、密钥不出你的机器；Pod Cloud 是可选控制平面。

## See it in 5 minutes

No agent, no account, no data leaves your machine — everything runs in a temp directory:

```bash
git clone https://gitee.com/suhuisoftwares/pod.git && cd pod
pnpm install && pnpm build
bash scripts/demo-least-privilege.sh
```

It seeds a realistic week of tool calls (reads, writes, a delete, and one `.env` access), then compiles a policy from that corpus and diffs it against a permissive baseline:

```text
## 策略 diff（baseline → draft）

| server     | tool                 | baseline | draft      | 变化     |
|------------|----------------------|----------|------------|----------|
| *          | *                    | allow    | deny       | 默认决策 |
| filesystem | read_file            | allow    | deny       | 收紧     |
| filesystem | write_file           | allow    | approve    | 收紧     |
| filesystem | delete_file          | allow    | deny       | 收紧     |
| github     | create_pull_request  | allow    | approve    | 收紧     |
| shell      | execute_command      | allow    | approve    | 收紧     |
| filesystem | get_file_info        | allow    | (unlisted) | 移除     |

**汇总**：收紧 8 · 新增 0 · 移除 1 · 放宽 0
```

Two details matter here: `read_file` is locked down because it touched `.env` **once** (observation beats guessing), and `get_file_info` is removed because it never appeared in the corpus (least privilege = don't grant what you didn't observe).

## Install

```bash
# macOS / Linux — builds from source, no npm account needed
# 链接钉在发布版上（可复现）：想跟主干就把 v0.3.2 换成 main
curl -fsSL https://gitee.com/suhuisoftwares/pod/raw/v0.3.2/scripts/install.sh | sh
# 主源连不上时用 GitHub 镜像（同一个脚本）：
# curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/suhui-organization/pod/v0.3.2/scripts/install.sh | sh
pod --help
```

The installer clones `v0.3.2` to `~/.pod/src`, builds, and puts `pod` in `~/.local/bin`. Override with `POD_SRC`, `POD_BIN_DIR`, `POD_REPO_URL`, `POD_VERSION`（`POD_VERSION=main` 跟主干）。

**中文 / English**：CLI 输出支持中英切换——`pod --lang en-US <cmd>`，或设一次
`POD_LANG=en-US`（也会读 `LC_ALL` / `LANG`）。默认中文；未翻译的句子原样显示，
不会出现空白或 key 名。覆盖进度自查：`bash scripts/i18n-coverage.sh`
（列出还没英文词条的串和词表里的僵尸键，`--strict` 有缺口时退出 1）；控制台另有
真机逐页验收 `bash scripts/web-acceptance.sh`（指到 k8s 后端、无头 Chrome 点一遍，
断言"每页都渲染了内容且没有非数据中文"）。

### Run the MCP gateway as a container

同一个网关也能以自包含镜像运行：镜像里已经构建好 CLI、预装了上游 filesystem server，
默认用 `baseline` 策略（只读工具放行，写操作进审批），从 stdio 暴露 MCP。

```bash
docker build -f deploy/Dockerfile.mcp -t pod-mcp .
docker run -i --rm pod-mcp        # 接到任意 MCP 客户端即可（stdio）
```

要换成别的上游 server 或策略，覆盖 entrypoint 参数即可；默认等价于
`pod serve --agent glama --server filesystem --command mcp-server-filesystem --arg /workspace`。
（公开目录收录时要求的检查也是这两步：进程能启动、能响应 `initialize` / `tools/list`。）

Requires **Node.js ≥ 22.13** (pnpm 11's runtime floor) and git.

## What's in this repo

## From zero to enforcement

```bash
pod scan                              # 1. see what is exposed (read-only)
pod onboard                           # 2. preview the takeover plan (dry-run)
pod onboard --yes                     #    wrap agents in record-only mode (backups kept)
# ... use your agents normally for a day or two ...
pod policy draft --diff <baseline>    # 3. compile least-privilege policy + show the diff
pod lint --policy ~/.pod/policies/draft.json
pod serve --agent <name> --server <name> --policy ~/.pod/policies/draft.json \
  --command <cmd> --arg <value>       # 4. switch to enforcement
pod watch                             # 5. approve high-risk calls from a second terminal
pod verify-audit                      #    tamper check over the whole chain
pod export-evidence                   #    verifiable evidence bundle
```

## What pod is / is not

| pod is | pod is not |
| --- | --- |
| A **policy compiler**: turns real tool-call corpora into least-privilege rules | A sandbox or a container runtime |
| A **policy enforcement point** on the MCP boundary (fail-closed) | A replacement for your agent's own sandbox |
| A **tamper-evident audit + evidence layer** across agents | An LLM content-moderation firewall |
| **Local-first**: policies, audits and secrets stay on your machine | A cloud service that needs your logs |

Compared with the rest of the market: platform-native sandboxes (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI) protect **one agent**; MCP gateways (agentgateway, ToolHive, ContextForge, Docker) give you a **place to enforce hand-written rules**; scanners (Snyk Agent Scan, mcp-guard) tell you **what is exposed**. pod is the missing step between "what is exposed" and "what is allowed": it **writes the policy for you from observed behavior**, then proves what happened.

## Core capabilities

- **`pod policy draft`** — compile a least-privilege policy from recorded calls. Read-only tools → `allow`, write/exec → `approve`, destructive → `deny`; any observed sensitive-path or secret hit forces `deny`. `--diff <baseline.json>` prints exactly what got tightened, added, removed or loosened.
- **Policy gate** — evaluated `deny > secrets-input > approve > allow`, fail-closed by default; unlisted servers/tools are denied.
- **Approval gate** — high-risk calls suspend and wait for a human; timeout fails closed; approvals are recorded with approver + reason.
- **Tamper-evident audit** — append-only SHA-256 hash chain; `pod verify-audit` detects any historical edit; sensitive content is stored as hashes only.
- **Evidence bundles** — `pod export-evidence` / `pod verify-evidence` produce and verify a portable evidence bundle plus a one-page report.
- **Secret gates** — sensitive input paths (`.env`, `.ssh`, `.aws`, …), known-format output regexes, and high-entropy fallback detection for unknown secret formats.
- **Rollback points** — `pod serve --snapshot` captures write operations; `pod rollback` restores files.
- **Coverage + drift** — `pod coverage --strict` exits non-zero when an MCP server is bypassing the gateway.
- **Supply-chain gate (T4)** — the gateway validates the declared server source (`command` / `package` / `version`) before startup.
- **Control-plane posture (`pod posture`)** — same rules, applied to the control plane: lifecycle hooks, frozen config, memory files, MCP package sources, agent identities, delegation chains. Drift is reported against a `pod posture freeze` baseline; `--strict` exits 1.
- **User-owned rules** — every verdict comes from `~/.pod/rules.json` (or `--rules <file>`): risk patterns, severities, thresholds, trusted sources, egress lists. Code ships defaults; you own the decisions. Invalid rules fail closed.
- **Hardening audit deliverable (`pod harden`)** — one command runs exposure scan + control-plane posture + least-privilege compilation + evidence export and writes a client-ready report directory (`report.md` / `findings.json` / `policy-draft.json` / `evidence.json` / `manifest.json` with per-file sha256). Local only, never uploaded; secrets appear as masks, never prefixes.
- **Subscribed rules (`pod rules`)** — rules ship as signed Ed25519 packs (`pack` / `verify` / `apply` / `pull`). Network sources must be verified. A pack that would *loosen* any of your existing rules is refused unless you pass `--allow-relax`, so an "update" can never silently weaken your posture.
- **Policy red team (`pod redteam`)** — attack scenarios are drilled against your policy through the *same* pure pipeline the gateway uses (`decideCall`), so "blocked" means blocked in production too, and the results are reproducible in CI. A model can *propose* scenarios (`--llm`), but only as data: it never gets a verdict, never gets execution, and never touches an MCP server. Only the capability surface (server/tool names + verdicts) leaves the machine, and every model call is written to the hash chain as `kind=llm-call`.
- **Agent identities + delegation narrowing (`pod identity` / `pod delegate`)** — ed25519 keypair per agent; delegations are signed hop-by-hop and must narrow capabilities; `--ttl` bounds every hop.
- **JIT grants (`pod grant`)** — signed, time-boxed, scope-limited tokens; a valid grant satisfies an `approve` decision without a human in the loop, and single-use grants are consumed atomically.
- **Circuit breaker (`pod quarantine`)** — quarantine an agent and the gateway denies its calls on the next invocation (no restart), with the decision written to the audit chain.
- **Trust-propagation anomalies + pollution tracing (`pod anomaly` / `pod trace`)** — thresholds from `rules.anomaly`; trace walks the delegation chain and the audit chain to find where a poisoned agent came from and who it could reach.

## Pod Cloud (optional, in this repo)

本地部分开箱可用，**云端是可选的**：没有它，`pod` 照样编译策略、执法、留证据。
需要跨机器/跨 agent 的统一视图、策略下发、告警与合规报告时，一条命令起一个：

```bash
bash deploy/install.sh            # 单机 Docker Compose（首次 2-5 分钟）
# 或带管理员：ADMIN_EMAIL=you@x.com ADMIN_PASSWORD='...' bash deploy/install.sh
```

数据方向是单向的：本地只推 SHA-256 哈希上云，审计原文不出你的机器；云端不参与本地执法（云端挂了 agent 不受影响）。
必填配置只有一项（JWT 密钥，脚本自动生成），其余见 [docs/deploy-cloud.md](docs/deploy-cloud.md)。

## Sponsor

pod is Apache-2.0 and stays that way: the CLI, the gateway, the audit chain and the
evidence export are complete on your own machine, and nothing is locked behind a
sponsorship. Sponsorship pays for the parts that do not demo well — CI minutes, a
machine to run the multi-harness attack suites on, and the security maintenance
that only shows up as *absence* of incidents.

The only official channel is **GitHub Sponsors**:
[github.com/sponsors/suhui-organization](https://github.com/sponsors/suhui-organization)
(or the **Sponsor** button at the top of this repository).

赞助不是解锁功能的前置条件——核心能力本地全都有。不给钱也一样欢迎：提一个真实的
误报、贴一份 `pod scan` 的输出、或者帮下一个人装起来，都是等价的帮忙。
