Install
In the Claude desktop app:
- Settings › Customize › Plugins › + Add, add
ProofAgent-ai/proofagent-claude-plugin, then install ProofAgent.
- Sign in: open the proofagent connector and click Connect (in Claude Code:
/mcp › proofagent › Authenticate).
- Click Approve on the ProofAgent screen. Done: the status line shows
proofagent on (warn).
Already added ProofAgent as a connector on claude.ai? Then you are already signed in: the plugin uses that connection, its own connector shows Not added with a greyed-out Connect, and there is nothing more to do.
No key to copy. In Claude Code, send these one at a time, then sign in as in step 2:
/plugin marketplace add ProofAgent-ai/proofagent-claude-plugin
/plugin install proofagent@proofagent
What you get
- Masked before Claude sees it. Names, emails, phones, IDs, card numbers, health data and secrets become placeholders like
[email protected], in your messages and in what tools return.
- Real values back, on your machine. When Claude writes a file or runs a command, the real values are filled in. On your screen, replies show the real values too.
- AI risks flagged. Prompt injection, jailbreaks and data leaving, in one short notice.

Works in English, French and Arabic. Photos: Claude reads what's visible and ProofAgent checks it; ProofAgent itself reads text only. ProofAgent helps you spot risks; it doesn't guarantee to catch everything and isn't legal or compliance advice.

A notice says what was masked, and the status line shows ProofAgent is on:

The status line shows proofagent on or proofagent off. What was masked or risky appears in a notice for each message.
Change it in the plugin's settings (/plugin configure proofagent@proofagent). A guardrail key there is optional, for servers and CI. Pause with /proofagent off (shows proofagent off), resume with /proofagent on.
Privacy
- Claude sees placeholders only. The real values stay in your session's memory, never on disk.
- Text is checked by ProofAgent over HTTPS, processed in memory and not stored.
- Your organization's ProofAgent policy decides what is masked and what is risky.
