M-Anchor: a deterministic, zero-LLM Python gate that blocks unsupported LLM record updates

Informal-Winter-3190 · reddit · 2026-10-01

The author open-sourced M-Anchor (Apache-2.0), a locally run Python app that vets LLM-generated proposals before they update stored records. The gate makes zero LLM calls and uses deterministic logic: it rejects unsupported changes and only allows updates backed by admitted evidence. It ships with fixed attack scenarios, valid-update controls, and exportable logs, protecting the app's case records. Aimed at prompt injection and adversarial threats to state integrity, it offers an engineering guardrail that doesn't rely on model judgment, with the author welcoming reproducible counterexamples.
