## Description
In-browser ~60Hz behavior tree execution engine with reactive triggers and safety guardrails.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "behavior-runtime-mcp": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","behavior-runtime-mcp"]
  }
}
```

> **High-Frequency (~60Hz) In-Browser Behavior Tree Tactical Runtime Engine for AI Agents**

`@putervision/behavior-mcp` is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that executes deterministic behavior trees directly in browser runtimes at ~60Hz with reactive trigger preemption, frame recordings, SHA-256 Merkle audit chains, and a 5-layer safety guardrail stack.

## ⚡ 15-Second Quick Start

```bash
# 1. Initialize runtime & seed default behavior trees in your workspace
npx @putervision/behavior-mcp init

# 2. Run system diagnostic and health checks
npx @putervision/behavior-mcp doctor

# 3. Inspect active executions, blackboard state, and reactive triggers
npx @putervision/behavior-mcp inspect
```

## 🛠️ 10 Core MCP Tools

| Tool | Actions | Purpose |
|------|---------|---------|
| `load_behavior` | `load`, `unload`, `swap` | Inject, initialize, or hot-swap a behavior tree in browser runtime |
| `set_parameters` | `set`, `get`, `reset` | Dynamically update or query runtime execution parameters |
| `get_status` | `current`, `history`, `tree_state` | Query active status, node traversal path, tick count, duration |
| `abort_behavior` | `abort`, `pause`, `resume` | Halt, pause, or resume behavior execution safely |
| `register_trigger` | `register`, `list` | Configure reactive interrupt triggers with priority preemption |
| `replay_recording` | `capture`, `list` | Capture or inspect deterministic browser action sequences |
| `get_metrics` | `current`, `history` | Retrieve runtime telemetry, tick durations, and stuck events |
| `manage_behaviors` | `register`, `get`, `list` | CRUD for immutable behavior tree JSON with SHA-256 tree hashes |
| `manage_blackboard` | `get`, `set` | Read, write, or query shared behavior tree blackboard variables |
| `manage_runtime_db` | `stats`, `audit`, `snapshot`, `restore` | SQLite diagnostics, SHA-256 Merkle audit, and checkpoint rollback |

## 🛡️ 5-Layer Safety Guardrail Stack & System 1 Invariants

1. **Fail-Closed Evaluator**: Unrecognized node definitions throw fatal exceptions immediately.
2. **60Hz Tick Invariant & Synchronous `semantic_check`**: The loop never blocks on external network calls; semantic condition checks resolve synchronously against blackboard caches.
3. **HMAC Intention Gate Verification**: Intentions dispatched to execution nodes require unexpired, cryptographically signed dispatch tokens (`PENTAD_HMAC_SECRET`).
4. **Action Rate Limiter & Leaf Policy Gate**: Strict 60 actions/sec maximum throughput ceiling and policy guardrails blocking irreversible mutations.
5. **Emergency Kill Switch & Watchdog Heartbeat**: Atomic safety latch and watchdog timers halting execution if tick stalls beyond 5,000ms.
