If you use Claude Desktop with MCP tools, every tool call is unaudited. There is no record of what Claude did with your tools unless you build it yourself. asqa-mcp fixes this. It is an MCP server that sits alongside your other servers and signs every tool call. Setup (2 minutes) Install: pip install asqa-mcp Add to your Claude Desktop config ( ~/Library/Application /Claude/claude_desktop_config.json ): { \ "mcpServers \": { \" asqa \": { \" command \": \" asqa-mcp \", \" en \": { \" ASQAV_API_KEY \": \" sk_. \" } } Restart Claude Desktop. That is it.
