AI Audit Trail MCP Server

Prove what your AI did, why, and that nobody changed the record. The EU AI Act becomes mandatory for high-risk AI systems in August 2026. It requires tamper-evident logs proving every decision was made correctly (Art. 12). Most teams are solving this with normal logging - which is neither tamper-evident nor legally defensible in an audit. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting finance tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.
