> **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

1. **Fail-Closed Evaluator**: Unrecognized node definitions throw fatal exceptions immediately.
2. **Watchdog Heartbeat Timer**: Halts execution if tick evaluation stalls beyond 5,000ms.
3. **Action Rate Limiter**: Strict 60 actions/sec maximum throughput ceiling.
4. **Leaf Policy Gate**: Blocks irreversible, high-risk mutations (`delete_item`, `spend_currency`).
5. **Emergency Kill Switch**: Atomic safety latch (`EmergencySafety.engageKillSwitch()`) halts all runtimes.
