Setup
Install Mantora in your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and others).
Repository: https://github.com/josephwibowo/mantora
Follow the installation instructions in the repository README, then restart your MCP client.
The open-source run log for MCP agents.Get a shareable report to verify and reproduce what the agent did —plus a protective mode for common dangerous SQL.
Mantora focuses on making agent behaviorreviewable and repeatable. It records the key evidence from each session and turns it into a Markdown report. Protective mode adds basic guardrails (block/warn rules) so you don’t learn about a bad query the hard way.
Capture the exact SQL and tool calls an agent makes for easy verification.
Basic guardrails that block or warn on destructive SQL patterns by default.

- Result:A collapsible<details>block containing the SQL, execution time, and safety checks. Perfect for Pull Requests.
If an agent tries toDROP TABLE users, Mantora intercepts it.
- The Agent sees:"Error: Action blocked by safety policy."
- You see:A red entry in the Mantora UI with the exact SQL that was blocked.
- Export JSON:Get the raw trace data.
- Download Markdown:Get a readable log of the entire conversation.
