Consentgate Mcp
Require human approval over Telegram before your coding agent executes risky or policy-bound MCP tool calls.
Overview
ConsentGate MCP is a MCP server for the Ship phase that gates AI agent tool actions behind consent policies with human approval via Telegram and fail-closed enforcement.
What is this MCP server?
- Fail-closed gating: denied or missing consent blocks agent actions instead of proceeding silently
- Telegram-based human approval tied to a ConsentGate policy
- stdio npm package `consentgate-mcp` for local agent runtimes
- API key auth via CONSENTGATE_API_KEY from consentgate.fyi dashboard
- Optional CONSENTGATE_BASE_URL override for self-hosted or staging APIs
- Server version 0.1.1
- stdio npm identifier consentgate-mcp
- Required secret env CONSENTGATE_API_KEY
What problem does it solve?
Autonomous agents can invoke MCP tools faster than you can review them, with no built-in pause for policy or human sign-off.
Who is it for?
Indie builders running semi-autonomous agents in production who want a lightweight approval layer without building custom auth middleware.
Skip if: Teams that only need read-only research tools with no write side effects, or orgs that require enterprise IAM instead of Telegram workflows.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Risky MCP tool calls wait for Telegram approval and blocked calls stay blocked when consent is denied or unavailable.
- MCP tools wrapped behind ConsentGate consent checks
- Telegram-driven approve/deny workflow for agent actions
- Fail-closed behavior when consent is not granted

How it compares
MCP policy gate and approval channel, not an agent skill that plans or writes code.
