jail

jail is an MCP server for Claude Code from mefengl/jail-mcp. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A local search service for finding information across more than a billion papers, books, code files, legal cases, forums, Wikipedia pages, and other documents. It runs through the jail-mcp package and requires a JAIL_API_KEY.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to look up research, code, legal material, discussions, reference information, and other documents while working on a task.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to search many separate sources one by one. The same search can cover several kinds of documents from one place.

Security

Grade A, and why

jail scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
