The Engine · MCP

Wire the bias engine into your agent.

Irrational is an open, stateless MCP server. It runs no model — it returns the adversarial framework, the 22-bias catalogue, and the procedure as a directive your agent's own model executes. No keys, nothing stored.

Tools

analyze_decision

Adversarially audit a decision for cognitive biases. Returns a directive YOUR model executes to produce the composed audit (verdict-first). Provide reasoning, not just the conclusion.

list_biases

List the 22-bias catalogue, optionally filtered by family.

get_bias

Get the full entry for one bias by id.

The pattern

An agent calls analyze_decision with a judgment and the reasoning behind it. The tool returns a directive — the adversarial contract, the catalogue, the procedure, and the required verdict-first output shape. The agent's own model produces the audit. The discipline is ours; the reasoning is yours.

Best used systematically — have an agent audit its own draft recommendation before it finalizes, or let a second agent red-team the first. That external check is where the real debiasing lives.
