io.github.dingdawg/dingdawg-governance — MCP Server for Developer Tools

DingDawg Governance

Every AI action receipted. Capability-gated. Rollback-ready.

AI Governance-as-a-Service via MCP. Every write, shell command, and state-changing operation your agent makes is validated before it runs and cryptographically receipted after it completes — giving you a tamper-evident audit trail you can query, export, or roll back at any time.

Works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible agent.

What You Get

Pre-execution validation — Every action checked against your policy before it runs. Blocked actions never touch your filesystem.
Cryptographic receipts — Tamper-evident record for every action with a unique ID, output hash, and public verification URL.
One-command rollback — Undo any file write by referencing its receipt ID. Prior state is captured automatically before every write.
Real-time trust scores — Behavioral pattern tracking across sessions surfaces anomalies before they become incidents.
Compliance reports in seconds — SOC 2 and ISO 27001-aligned audit reports as signed PDF or structured JSON. One API call.
