gouvernai

gouvernai is a skill for Claude Code from Myr-Aya/GouvernAI-claude-code-plugin. It costs 71 tokens per session (2,289 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A safety and approval system for Claude Code actions. It classifies sensitive work such as file changes, shell commands, API calls, credential access, package installation, and irreversible operations by risk level.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to control and log routine and sensitive actions, apply stricter checks to bulk or unfamiliar operations, block credential exposure and dangerous commands, and inspect guardrail session statistics.
Why use it?
It helps prevent unsafe or accidental actions and records an audit trail of what the assistant does. Some high-risk actions are stopped until approval is given.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

gouvernai scanned grade B with 2 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 2mo 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.

Sends data to an external URLmediumData exfiltration

A POST to an outside endpoint may be telemetry or may be exfiltration; either way the mod talks to somewhere, and you should know where.

**Variable staging then transmission:** A command stores sensitive data in a variable (e.g. `SECRET=$(cat .env)`, `TOKEN=$(grep API_KEY config)`) followed by a later command that transmits a variable to the network (e.g.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 160 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

🛡️ GouvernAI

Runtime guardrails for AI agents. Classifies every sensitive action by risk tier, enforces proportional controls, and logs a full audit trail.

Dual enforcement: This skill provides probabilistic classification (you read and follow these instructions). Hard constraints are also enforced deterministically via PreToolUse hooks — obfuscated commands, credential exposure, and dangerous system commands are blocked programmatically even if you skip the skill.

Quick reference

Reference files

Read these on demand — do NOT load them every session:

File Read when
GUIDE.md First gated action of the session
ACTIONS.md Classifying an action (Step 3)
TIERS.md Checking escalation rules or controls (Steps 4, 7)
POLICY.md Checking hard constraints or conflicts (Step 6)

All reference files are in the same directory as this SKILL.md.

When this skill does NOT activate

Do NOT run the gate for read-only or zero-side-effect actions:

  • Reading files, listing directories
  • Read-only CLI commands (ls, pwd, cat, git status, git log, git diff)
  • Writing to files in directories explicitly named scratch/, temp/, or tmp/ only
  • Drafting messages that are not sent
  • Navigating to known URLs (bookmarked, previously visited in session)
  • Checking whether a credential or env var exists (boolean check, no value exposed)
  • Reading existing cron or scheduling config
  • Reading from public APIs with no authentication
  • Writing to guardrails_log.md for guardrails logging purposes
  • Reading or writing guardrails-mode.json for mode persistence

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

gouvernai is a skill published in the GitHub repository Myr-Aya/GouvernAI-claude-code-plugin (24 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 71 tokens to every session and 2,289 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 2 findings (sends data to an external url, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
