Eight DAMA DMBOK pillars scored in about ten minutes — real MCP server, real maturity engine, click to watch on GitHub.

> [!IMPORTANT]
> **ODGS MCP Server v0.3.4 — Maturity Diagnostics + Certified Pack Access**
> `governance_score` now delegates to the **`odgs-maturity`** 8-pillar DAMA DMBOK engine.
> Regulatory compilation, drift detection, and catalog synchronisation require a Certified Pack licence.
> The community tier — validation, scoring, conformance checking — remains open with no registration.

### Core Capabilities
| Change | Detail |
|---|---|
| **`governance_score`** | Delegates to `odgs-maturity` (8-pillar DAMA DMBOK) when installed; falls back to built-in heuristic. Returns 0–100 score with per-pillar gap analysis. |
| **AuthGate** | Community / Professional / Enterprise access via API key validation. 24h disk cache; `workspace.yaml` fallback for air-gapped deployments. |
| **Licensed tools** | `compile_regulation`, `check_drift`, `detect_conflicts`, `narrate_audit`, `discover_bindings` (Professional); `harvest_sovereign_rules` (Enterprise). |
> The European Data Governance Maturity Benchmark 2026 recorded an average maturity of **37.6%** across 99 enterprises — a **62.4% gap** against current regulatory expectation. `governance_score` applies the same assessment methodology to your project.

## What This Is
The ODGS MCP Server connects any MCP-compatible AI agent to the ODGS Sovereign Validation Engine. The engine evaluates data operations against governance rules at runtime and produces **S-Certs (Sovereign Certificates)** — cryptographically signed, machine-verifiable records that a governance rule was applied.
This is the bridge between probabilistic AI inference and deterministic governance enforcement.
### EU AI Act & High-Risk AI Systems
Organisations operating High-Risk AI Systems under **EU AI Act Articles 10 and 12** require demonstrable, auditable data governance at the pipeline level. S-Certs provide that audit trail in a format suitable for regulatory submission.
Certified Sovereign Packs and the S-Cert Registry are available through Metric Provenance certified implementation partners. For architectural assessment: [metricprovenance.com/pricing](https://metricprovenance.com/pricing).
---
## Capabilities
- **Runtime validation:** Data payloads are evaluated against sovereign governance rules at call time; each evaluation produces a signed S-Cert.
- **Governance maturity scoring:** 8-pillar DAMA DMBOK assessment (0–100) with per-pillar gap analysis, aligned to the European Governance Maturity Benchmark methodology.
- **Regulatory compilation** *(licensed)*: Converts legislative text — EU AI Act, DORA, GDPR — into validated ODGS rule JSON.
- **Semantic drift detection** *(licensed)*: Identifies definitional drift between governance artefacts across versions.
- **Enterprise catalog integration** *(licensed)*: Harvests and mints sovereign rules from Databricks, Snowflake, and Collibra via the Flint Bridge.

## Quick Start
```bash
# Core validation capabilities (free, no account needed)
pip install odgs-mcp-server
# With maturity scoring
pip install odgs-mcp-server odgs-maturity
# Complete installation with LLM bridge capabilities
pip install "odgs-mcp-server[llm]"
```
### Client Configuration
The server operates over standard **stdio transport**, making it instantly compatible with any MCP client.
