Humane Proxy MCP Server

Lightweight, plug-and-play AI safety middleware that protects humans. HumaneProxy sits between your users and any LLM. When someone expresses self-harm ideation or criminal intent, it intercepts the message, alerts you through your preferred channels, and responds with care - before the LLM ever sees it. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

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