Patronus released three open-weight classifiers for MCP tool-call security.
- Husky Sight classifies the tool type across 14 categories such as file, database, shell, API, secrets, and infra.
- Husky Paw classifies the operation: read, write, list, exec, or network.
- Husky Nose classifies data-flow risk, including labels like source:sensitive, source:untrusted, and sink:external.
- The models are designed to run before a tool call executes, enabling deterministic gates such as sensitive → external.
- Each model has a quantized edge build in ONNX INT8/INT4, around 96 MB, and is meant to run locally inside an MCP client without extra infrastructure.
