Melra Overview
melra governs local agent tool calls routed through it, checking each request against policy before dispatch.

Mutating actions are dispatched at most once per task, while uncertain results wait for reconciliation instead of automatic replay. Reach for melra when an MCP client needs a local workspace boundary and explicit control over tool authorization and recovery.
Primary Use Cases for Melra:
- Gate agent file and command operations with a local policy
- Require approval for sensitive tool calls
- Verify evidence and retain redacted execution receipts
- Park uncertain mutations for later reconciliation
