Protocol-0: Autonomous SRE & Incident Response Copilot with Zero-Trust Execution Gates

About this project

Protocol-0 is an autonomous, multi-agent SRE copilot built on the NitroStack MCP framework. It continuously monitors enterprise infrastructure, diagnoses root causes, calculates business SLA impact, and executes auto-remediation plans, secured by a cryptographic Zero-Trust Execution Gate. The Problem: Modern incident response is broken. SREs spend hours correlating alerts across fragmented systems (GitHub, Datadog, Jira, PagerDuty), while executives panic over business SLAs. Existing automated tools are either too simple or too dangerous, if an AI agent has write-access to your production servers, a single hallucination or prompt-injection could delete your databases. The Solution: Protocol-0 solves this by wrapping the entire incident funnel into a deterministic, multi-agent LangGraph engine running natively over Model Context Protocol (MCP). It deploys 4 specialized agents: Monitoring Agent: Polls Datadog and SaaS telemetry to detect anomalies. Engineering Agent: Inspects Kubernetes pod failures and executes root-cause analysis. Executive Agent: Projects business impact, SLA risks, and department health scores. Action Agent: Implements remediation playbooks (scaling deployments, rolling back commits, extending deadlines). The Secret Weapon: Zero-Trust HMAC Guard Security is enforced in code, not prompts. The Action Agent physically cannot mutate infrastructure without a valid cryptographic HMAC signature generated by the human-in-the-loop approval. Even if the AI is prompt-injected to "bypass safety," the zero-trust gate blocks unauthorized executions instantly. Why It Matters: Protocol-0 transforms AI from a basic Q&A chatbot into a secure, collaborative, and autonomous SRE team member. It bridges the gap between raw infrastructure engineering and high-level executive decision-making, keeping your systems running and your production secure
