Behavior Runtime MCP
In-browser ~60Hz behavior tree execution engine with reactive triggers and blackboard projection.
Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

@putervision/behavior-mcp
High-Frequency (~60Hz) In-Browser Behavior Tree Tactical Runtime Engine for AI Agents
@putervision/behavior-mcp is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that executes deterministic behavior trees directly in browser runtimes at ~60Hz with reactive trigger preemption, frame recordings, SHA-256 Merkle audit chains, and a 5-layer safety guardrail stack.
🌐 Official Documentation: putervision.com • Interactive Web Docs
⚡ 15-Second Quick Start
# 1. Initialize runtime & seed default behavior trees in your workspace
npx @putervision/behavior-mcp init
# 2. Run system diagnostic and health checks
npx @putervision/behavior-mcp doctor
# 3. Inspect active executions, blackboard state, and reactive triggers
npx @putervision/behavior-mcp inspect
🛠️ 10 Core MCP Tools
| Tool | Actions | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
load_behavior | load, unload, swap | Inject, initialize, or hot-swap a behavior tree in browser runtime |
set_parameters | set, get, reset | Dynamically update or query runtime execution parameters |
get_status | current, history, tree_state | Query active status, node traversal path, tick count, duration |
abort_behavior | abort, pause, resume | Halt, pause, or resume behavior execution safely |
register_trigger | register, list | Configure reactive interrupt triggers with priority preemption |
replay_recording | capture, list | Capture or inspect deterministic browser action sequences |
get_metrics | current, history | Retrieve runtime telemetry, tick durations, and stuck events |
manage_behaviors | register, get, list | CRUD for immutable behavior tree JSON with SHA-256 tree hashes |
manage_blackboard | get, set | Read, write, or query shared behavior tree blackboard variables |
manage_runtime_db | stats, audit, snapshot, restore | SQLite diagnostics, SHA-256 Merkle audit, and checkpoint rollback |
🛡️ 5-Layer Safety Guardrail Stack & System 1 Invariants
- Fail-Closed Evaluator: Unrecognized node definitions throw fatal exceptions immediately.
- 60Hz Tick Invariant & Synchronous
semantic_check: The loop never blocks on external network calls; semantic condition checks resolve synchronously against blackboard caches. - HMAC Intention Gate Verification: Intentions dispatched to execution nodes require unexpired, cryptographically signed dispatch tokens (
PENTAD_HMAC_SECRET). - Action Rate Limiter & Leaf Policy Gate: Strict 60 actions/sec maximum throughput ceiling and policy guardrails blocking irreversible mutations.
- Emergency Kill Switch & Watchdog Heartbeat: Atomic safety latch and watchdog timers halting execution if tick stalls beyond 5,000ms.

Frequently asked questions
What is Behavior Runtime MCP?
In-browser ~60Hz behavior tree execution engine with reactive triggers and blackboard projection.
How do I install Behavior Runtime MCP?
It runs on your machine. In Claude Code: claude mcp add behavior-runtime-mcp -- npx -y @putervision/behavior-mcp@0.4.1. For other clients, paste the JSON configuration from this page into their MCP settings.
Does Behavior Runtime MCP need an API key?
Its registry entry lists no required key or secret. Some features may still need an account with the service it connects to.
Is Behavior Runtime MCP open source?
Yes. Its code is on GitHub under the MIT license.
Who maintains Behavior Runtime MCP?
It is published by putervision. AI.tn lists it but does not maintain or endorse it.
From the official MCP Registry. Listing is not an endorsement: review a server's code and permissions before giving it access to your data.
