kya-wrap

kya-wrap is a skill for Cursor from The-Pixel-Boys/shield-kya. It costs 41 tokens per session (391 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A wrapper that sends an agent tool call through Shield KYA before it can cause an irreversible side effect. Shield KYA is the policy control point and can allow, deny, or require human approval.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding tools, MCP calls, or writes that need pre-action checks. It also covers stable tool identifiers, agent registration, authoring and runtime labels, and handling pending approvals.
Why use it?
It prevents tools from performing writes or other irreversible actions before policy checks and required approvals are complete.

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 A, and why

kya-wrap 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 12d 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 it actually says

Wrap a tool through Shield KYA

This plugin is a thin MCP gate. It does not decide policy. Shield KYA evaluate on the control plane is the sole PEP.

Verdicts

Verdict Meaning
ALLOW Side effect may proceed
DENY Do not execute. Never retry around the gate
REQUIRE_APPROVE Wait for a human APPROVED. Missing approval ⇒ no irreversible effect

Risk scores may only raise severity. They never auto-ALLOW.

Dual plane

  • host=ide: authoring / dry-run
  • host=runtime: production work

Same agent id, policy, approval, and trail on both. Label the host. Do not invent a second enforcement path in the editor.

How to wrap

  1. Register the agent principal (register-agent or console). Creating an agent is itself a tool (kya.agent.register). It is not a free write.
  2. Give the tool a stable toolId. No marketplace adapter required.
  3. Call evaluate (MCP evaluate / eval-tool) before the side effect.
  4. If REQUIRE_APPROVE, request approval and wait. Do not execute on a pending ticket.
  5. Offline --offline is a sample fixture. Do not treat it as production PEP.

Do not

  • Bypass evaluate because the IDE "already reviewed" the change
  • Treat scanners, ORR, or this skill as a second PEP
  • Position Shield as a chargeback, dispute, or payment-recovery product

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.
