## What It Does
KHEPRA MCP connects your AI assistant directly to a hardened compliance engine. Ask Claude or any MCP client to scan a system, map findings to STIG/NIST/CMMC controls, and generate an executive-ready risk report — all without sending data to external APIs.
**Key capabilities:**
- 36,195 STIG/CCI/NIST 800-53/800-171/CMMC mappings (offline, bundled)
- Post-quantum cryptographic attestation on every tool call (ML-DSA-65 / FIPS 204)
- **World's First DoD PQC STIG** — 17 controls covering CNSA 2.0 / FIPS 203/204/205 + agentic AI / MCP ([PQC-01-STIG-V1R1](docs/PQC-01-STIG-V1R1.md))
- Godfather Report: dollar-denominated business impact per finding (FAIR model)
- Air-gap and SCIF compatible — sovereign/ironbank modes make zero egress calls
- Flat annual licensing — no per-token or per-query charges
- Runs on your metal: on-prem, DoD, IC, classified environments

## MCP Tools
### Community Tier (Free — No License Key)
#### `pqc_stig` — World's First DoD PQC STIG ⭐
Assesses a source code directory against **PQC-01-STIG-V1R1**: 12 controls covering CNSA 2.0 algorithm approval, ML-DSA-65 key strength, ML-KEM-768 encapsulation, hybrid cryptography, key storage, constant-time implementation, and certificate chain requirements.
```
pqc_stig(scan_path?: string, profile?: "quick" | "full" | "executive")
```
> **Example:** *"Run pqc_stig on my project and tell me if I'm CNSA 2.0 compliant"*
#### `nist_map`
Map CCI identifiers or STIG findings to NIST 800-53 Rev 5 controls.
#### `khepra_query_stig`
Query the 36,195-row STIG/CCI/NIST/CMMC compliance database by control ID.
#### `dark_crypto_contribute` *(opt-in)*
Contribute anonymized cryptographic algorithm telemetry to the SouHimBou AI Dark Crypto Intelligence Network. No PII. Opt-in only — never fires without explicit invocation.
---
### Sovereign / Pharaoh Tier
#### `ert_scan`
Enterprise Risk & Threat scan across STIG, NIST 800-53, NIST 800-171, CMMC, and FedRAMP. Returns Godfather Report with dollar-denominated business impact.
```
ert_scan(target: string, frameworks?: string[], output_format?: "godfather" | "json" | "csv")
```
> **Example:** *"Run ert_scan on /etc and generate a Godfather Report"*
#### `stig_check`
Automated RHEL-09-STIG-V1R3 compliance scan against a live system or configuration path.
#### `cmmc_assess`
Full CMMC Level 1, 2, or 3 assessment with gap analysis and POA&M generation.
#### `godfather_report`
Generate an executive Godfather Report from prior scan results: top 10 findings ranked by dollar exposure, remediation ROI, and FAIR model business impact.
#### + 20 additional tools
`agent_record`, `dag_attestation`, `flight_export`, `khepra_get_dag_chain`, `nhi_inventory`, `acp_status`, `owasp_agent_assess`, `khepra_export_attestation`, `khepra_export_poam`, `khepra_get_compliance_score`, `ert_crypto`, `ert_readiness`, `stig_benchmark`, `ir_analysis`, `vuln_hunter`, `sbom_generate`, `threat_model`, `khepra_query_threat_intel`, `discover_assets`, and more.
---
## The Godfather Report
Unlike compliance scanners that output a wall of CVEs, KHEPRA translates findings into the language executives care about:
```
Finding: RHEL-09-212030 — No FIPS-validated crypto on /etc/ssh
Severity: CAT I (HIGH)
Business Impact: $2.4M estimated breach exposure (FAIR model)
Remediation Cost: $800 (4 hours engineer time)
ROI: 3,000x
```
Every finding includes control ID, framework mapping, business impact in dollars, remediation cost estimate, and ROI.

## Deployment Modes
| Mode | Air-Gap | Egress | Telemetry | Use Case |
|------|---------|--------|-----------|----------|
| `sovereign` | ✅ Yes | Zero | Zero | On-prem, SCIF, classified (DEFAULT) |
| `ironbank` | ✅ Yes | Zero | Zero | DoD/IC production, FIPS-only |
| `hybrid` | ❌ No | LAN | Zero | Edge + cloud coordination |
| `edge` | ❌ No | Unrestricted | Zero | Fully stateless SaaS |
Set via `KHEPRA_MODE` environment variable. Unknown values are rejected at startup and fall back to `sovereign` (fail-closed).
---
## Environment Variables
| Variable | Required | Default | Description |
|----------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `KHEPRA_LICENSE_KEY` | Sovereign/Pharaoh only | — | License key. Community tier runs without one. Get at [nouchix.com](https://nouchix.com) |
| `KHEPRA_MODE` | No | `sovereign` | Deployment mode: `sovereign`, `ironbank`, `hybrid`, `edge` |
| `KHEPRA_HOME` | No | `/var/lib/khepra` | Data and compliance DB directory |
| `KHEPRA_LOG_DIR` | No | `/var/log/khepra` | Log directory |
| `KHEPRA_DAG_PATH` | No | `~/.khepra/dag` | DAG audit chain storage path |
---
## Air-Gap & SCIF Deployment
KHEPRA makes **zero external network calls** in `sovereign` and `ironbank` modes:
- License validated offline via ML-DSA-65 signed `license.adinkhepra` file
- Compliance databases (36,195 mappings) bundled in container — no external downloads
- No telemetry, no heartbeat, no egress — verified at the transport layer
```bash
# Transfer image to air-gapped network
docker save ghcr.io/nouchix/pqc-khepra-mcp:latest | gzip > khepra-mcp.tar.gz
# On air-gapped host:
docker load < khepra-mcp.tar.gz
```
> **Note on telemetry:** The `dark_crypto_contribute` tool (Community tier) sends anonymized cryptographic algorithm telemetry to the [SouHimBou AI](https://souhimbou.ai) intelligence network **only when explicitly invoked by the user**. It is never triggered automatically. In sovereign/ironbank mode, all network calls are blocked at the transport layer regardless.

## Compliance Coverage
| Framework | Version | Mappings |
|-----------|---------|----------|
| STIG (RHEL 9) | V1R3 | Automated scanning |
