mod.rs

1//! MCP supply-chain protection (v0.9).
2//!
3//! Two complementary defenses against a malicious or compromised
4//! upstream MCP server:
5//!
6//! 1. **TOFU catalog pinning** -- on first contact with an upstream, the
7//!    `(name, description, input schema)` of every tool in its
8//!    `tools/list` result is hashed and pinned to
9//!    `~/.aperion-shield/pins/<server-key>.json`. On every later
10//!    `tools/list`, the live catalog is compared against the pins. A
11//!    changed hash is a *rug pull* -- the server shipped a benign
12//!    description at review time and swapped it later -- and is blocked
13//!    by default (`policy.supply_chain.on_changed_tool`).
14//!
15//! 2. **Description / result scanning** -- the rule engine gains two new
16//!    scopes. `where: tool_description` rules run against every tool
17//!    description in a `tools/list` result (catches tool-poisoning:
18//!    hidden instructions for the model embedded in the description).
19//!    `where: tool_result` rules run against the text content of every
20//!    `tools/call` result (catches prompt-injection payloads coming back
21//!    from the tool). Scanning happens in `main.rs`'s response pump; this
22//!    module only owns pinning and frame dissection helpers.
23//!
24//! Pins are plain JSON so they can be reviewed and committed to a
25//! dotfiles repo. `aperion-shield --repin -- <upstream...>` clears the
26//! pin file after a human has reviewed a legitimate change.
