Akf Overview

AKF attaches portable trust metadata to files an AI agent touches — like EXIF for AI — so a file can be re-verified cheaply instead of fully re-checked. It ships an MCP server (11 tools: check_file, replay_file, create_claim, validate_file, scan_file, trust_score, stamp_file, audit_file, embed_file, extract_file, detect_threats) alongside a CLI shell hook that intercepts common agent CLIs (claude, chatgpt, aider, openclaw, ollama, manus) and integrations for LangChain, LlamaIndex, and CrewAI.
