Assessment. A JVM agent framework with human approval, guardrail middleware and an MCP client over HTTP and stdio, all enforced in code, with three releases in the 90 days to 1 November 2026. It runs only on BoxLang, the stronger guards are opt-in, and minor releases have renamed public classes without a deprecation period.

Facts verified 1 November 2026 from vendor docs, repositories and package registries. JSON · Markdown
Strengths
- Human approval enforced in code, with suspended runs that resume without replaying the model call, five approval policies and durable grants
- Untrusted context is fenced and inbound text Unicode-normalised by default, with opt-in sanitiser, LLM-judge and output-redaction middleware
- stdio MCP servers start without a shell, with an allowedCommands setting, per-server tool filters and prefixes, and restart limits
- Three releases in the 90 days to 1 November 2026 (3.4.0, 3.5.0, 3.6.0), with a Keep a Changelog file and migration notes
- llms.txt and a Markdown copy of every docs page, plus about 100 runnable example scripts in the repository
Weaknesses
- Runs only on BoxLang, a JVM language, so it suits teams already on BoxLang or CFML rather than Python or TypeScript stacks
- Minor releases carry breaking changes. 3.6.0 renamed MCPClient to MCPHttpClient with no alias, noted on release day
- The stdio command allow-list, filesystem tool paths and MCP server authentication are all open by default
- Docs lag the code. On 1 November the 3.6.0 release page still read unreleased and didn't mention the stdio MCP client
- No OpenTelemetry export found. Tracing is through BoxLang interception points, logging and flight-recorder middleware
Before you call it notes for agents
- Set
mcp.stdio.allowedCommandsto the executables you need. The default empty list lets any command start as a stdio MCP server. - Pass
allowedPathswhen you create FileSystemTools. With none, its tools can read, write and delete anywhere the JVM user can. - Attach HumanInTheLoopMiddleware with a checkpointer for tools that write or spend. Approval is opt-in.
- Create MCP clients with
MCP()rather than the class, since 3.6.0 renamed MCPClient to MCPHttpClient without an alias. - Use the
mockprovider to test agent wiring and guardrails with no API key or network.

Ortus Solutions on @ortussolutions GitHub
Researched 1 November 2026 from public pages. Luis Majano's role, LinkedIn and GitHub are from the team data on Ortus's about page, read on 1 November 2026; the about page says he founded the company in 2006. His authorship of bx-ai is from ModuleConfig.bx and a bare clone of the repository. Other contributors in the last 90 days (Doug Cain, and Jacob Beers earlier) aren't named on the product, so they aren't listed. The roster of Ortus's founders may be incomplete; the about page names only Luis Majano. Investors: two web searches for Ortus Solutions funding, investors or a round, plus the about page and the 3.6 announcement, found no investor, round or acquisition. Ortus's Patreon is sponsorship, not investment. Shown for information, not part of the grade yet. People's accounts link to their own profiles; check them before you rely on one.
Notable
- 3.6.0 was tagged and its changelog finalised on 20 October 2026, with Ortus's announcement the same day source
- First release 1.0.0 on 17 March 2025, per the changelog and the v1.0.0 tag; the repository's first commit and the ForgeBox entry date from 5 March 2025 source
- ForgeBox reports 8,197 installs of bx-ai, 452 of them of 3.6.0, on 1 November 2026 source
- Browser automation and audio in the 3.6 announcement come from separate modules, bx-playwright and bx-audio, which bx-ai reaches over MCP or the tool registry source
- The docs' 3.6.0 release page still read "Unreleased (in development)" on 1 November 2026 and doesn't mention the stdio MCP client source
- 830 of the 995 commits on main are authored as Luis Majano on 1 November 2026, read from a bare clone source

Score breakdown methodology v0.7 · October 2026 research run
Assessed on 1 November 2026 from public evidence, against the published checklist. Confidence medium. Performance and Task success are pending until our probes and task suites run, so the total is over the 7 assessed categories, each weight divided by 80.
| Category | Weight this run | Score | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reliabilitychecked 1 November 2026 | 16%20 | 13.2 | |
Read with the local-software lines. Official package on ForgeBox, installed with install-bx-module bx-ai or box install bx-ai, with BoxLang 1.14.0 or later in box.json and JDK 21 in CONTRIBUTING.md, but the 3.6 announcement says BoxLang 1.18 or later (18 of 20). tests.yml runs about 140 test classes against Ollama and the vector stores in Docker Compose, and against paid providers on development and releases, on pull requests and pushes to development. Whether runs pass wasn't read, since WebFetch refused github.com (15 of 25). Open issues and replies weren't read for the same reason. The changelog closes issues #182 to #259 in 3.3.1 to 3.4.0, and bugs also go to Ortus's Jira (10 of 25). Keep a Changelog with semantic versioning stated and Migration sections, but breaking changes ship in minor releases (8 of 15). 3.6.0, past 1.0 (15). 66 in all. | |||
| Performancenot scored in this run | 10%pending | pending | n/a |
| Schema & documentationchecked 1 November 2026 | 13%16.2 | 11.5 | |
| Framework reading. A reference page for each built-in function with its arguments, and tool schemas generated from typed function arguments with required fields since 3.3.1. BoxLang is dynamically typed and no published API reference was found, though the repository builds DocBox API docs (15 of 25). llms.txt with about 150 entries and a Markdown copy of every page (10). The FAQ says when to use aiChat() or aiAgent() and the security guide says which guards to use when, though some FAQ links still say coming soon for pages that exist (14 of 20). Tool arguments are typed with required lists, and stdio options a server doesn't have throw InvalidArgument (11 of 15). About 100 example scripts in the repository and a gallery on ai.boxlang.io, but the production guide catches RateLimitException, TimeoutException and AuthenticationException, which the module's source never throws, and there is no exception reference (9 of 15). Keep a Changelog and a release-history page per version, but the 3.6.0 page still read unreleased on 1 November and two old versions appear twice in the changelog (12 of 15). 71 in all. | |||
| Agent ergonomicschecked 1 November 2026 | 13%16.2 | 12.0 | |
Framework reading, scored on what a tool-calling agent with MCP takes. An agent with an MCP server is one aiAgent() call with mcpServers, and toolFilter and prefix limit what each server adds. Skills can load lazily, but autoLoadSkills is on by default and injects every SKILL.md under /.agents/skills into every agent (20 of 25). MaxToolCallsMiddleware caps tool calls, window and summary memory bound history by messages or tokens, withMaxResponseBytes caps MCP answers and listTools( cursor ) pages tools (17 of 20). Named exceptions (ProviderError, UnsupportedCapability, InvalidArgument, MCPCommandRefused, BXAI.SecurityViolation) but no reference page, and the changelog says a timed-out call still surfaces as a JSON parse error (12 of 20). RetryMiddleware with exponential backoff, approval resumes that don't replay the model call or rerun executed tools, and a stdio client that never repeats an in-flight call. MCP tool annotations such as readOnlyHint aren't read (15 of 20). An agent needs a name and works with defaults, and a mock provider runs with no key, but it is one language (10 of 15). 74 in all. | |||
| Security & authchecked 1 November 2026 | 14%17.5 | 12.4 | |
Framework reading. 30 for what leaves the machine and credentials, 20 for approvals and sandboxing, 15 for prompt injection, 15 for audit and 20 for the security programme. No telemetry in the module's source, requests go only to configured providers, keys come from settings or environment variables, and request logging is off by default. 3.4.0 fixed a Gemini key leaking into logs through the request URL (27 of 30). Approval is enforced in code by HumanInTheLoopMiddleware with five policies, GuardrailMiddleware blocks tools by name and argument pattern, and stdio commands never use a shell. All of it is opt-in. allowedCommands allows any executable by default, FileSystemTools allows any path without allowedPaths, and the MCP server has no authentication unless configured (12 of 20). Unicode hygiene and fencing of ${context} are on by default, with opt-in input sanitiser, LLM judge and output guard. Streaming guards detect after the fact, which the changelog says (14 of 15). About 70 interception points, LoggingMiddleware, FlightRecorderMiddleware and MCP server statistics, with no OpenTelemetry export (11 of 15). CONTRIBUTING.md asks for reports to security@ortussolutions.com and the Slack #security channel. No security.txt (410), no bounty, and no published advisory found, while 3.6.0 lists a SQL injection fix in MySQL vector memory under Fixed (7 of 20). 71 in all. | |||
| Payments & pricingchecked 1 November 2026 | 10%12.5 | 6.2 | |
| Self-hosted rule, scored on the paid option. No payment protocol (0). BoxLang runtime plans are public without a login, Starter $749 a year and BoxLang+ and BoxLang++ from $1,999 to $4,999 a server or node a year, plan pricing rather than per unit (10). The Apache-2.0 module installs with no card (20) and no account or sign-up (20). 50 in all. | |||

Issue reply times couldn't be read (10 of 25). The ForgeBox package is current at 3.6.0 (15). Dependabot for Gradle monthly and Actions quarterly, tests on pull requests and development, and a format check (8 of 10). 83 in all. | |||

| Apache-2.0, OSI approved, though the licence file sits in src/main/resources rather than the repository root (30). The FAQ says prompts and history go to the chosen cloud provider and that Ollama keeps data local, and we found no telemetry in the source, but there's no statement for the module of what, if anything, Ortus receives. Ortus's privacy policy covers its website and customers and says data is collected when you use its products without naming which (15 of 30). Migration notes are dated in the changelog, and default models were moved off a Groq model on its removal date, but there's no written deprecation policy or support window (10 of 20).

Fix list 26 items, the biggest gain first
Everything this grade says the listing lacks, from the reasons above, the checklist, the provenance checks, the deductions, what we couldn't check and what the review panel asked for, with the steps, ready to paste into a coding agent working on BoxLang AI. A fix counts at the next check, once it's public.
You're lucky. As part of the beta, your first month is free.
What we couldn't check
- firstReleased is 2025-03-17, from the changelog's [1.0.0] heading and the v1.0.0 tag dated the same day in a bare clone. The repository's first commit and the ForgeBox entry date from 5 March 2025. The roundup's lead said 3.6 shipped on 30 October; the tag, the changelog and the announcement all say 20 October 2026
- unchecked: GitHub issues, pull-request reply times, Actions results and repository security advisories. WebFetch refused github.com, so per the batch rules it wasn't read another way; the repository itself was read from a bare clone
- unchecked: whether the DocBox API reference the repository builds is published anywhere
- The minimum BoxLang version disagrees. box.json says 1.14.0 and the 3.6 announcement says 1.18 or later. gradle.properties on main builds and tests against 1.17.0; a commit moving it to 1.18.0 (7 October 2026) sits on a side branch that isn't merged
- The docs and the code disagree in places. The readme gives skillsDirectory as /.ai/skills while ModuleConfig.bx defaults to /.agents/skills; the docs' 3.6.0 page says unreleased; the production guide's RateLimitException, TimeoutException and AuthenticationException aren't thrown by the source; the announcement places normalised reasoning in 3.6 though the changelog puts it in 3.4.0
- Judgement call. The SQL injection through MySQL vector memory filter keys (fixed in 3.6.0, listed under Fixed rather than as a security fix) and the Gemini key in logs (fixed in 3.4.0 under Security Fixes) took no deduction, since neither has a published advisory or severity, as moderates took none on pydantic-ai. A reader may weigh the first differently
- Judgement call. The -3 follows google-adk's deduction for breaking changes in minor releases. 3.4.0's rename of gatewayRegistry() to aiGatewayRegistry() wasn't counted, since the gateway registry was new in the same release
- bx-playwright and bx-audio are separate Ortus modules, named in the listing and not graded as part of it. On 1 November 2026 ForgeBox listed bx-playwright only as 1.0.0-snapshot though the announcement calls it 1.0; bx-audio is at 1.2.0. Whether bx-playwright (a browser MCP server) should be its own candidate is open
- ai.boxlang.io answers /robots.txt with its home page (HTTP 200, HTML), neither rules nor a bot check nor a 404. We read only the home page, once, and used it for the provider count and to check for 'first' or '#1' claims. None was found there, in the readme or in the announcement, so no deduction
- Vendor's claims. '15+' or '16+' providers, '20+ memory types', '30+ file formats', '12 vector databases' and 'shell injection is structurally impossible' are Ortus's words. The readme lists 21 providers including the mock and OpenAI-compatible ones
- Context, not graded. The BoxLang runtime has paid plans from $749 a year; the plans page lists an 'Extended AI Providers' feature row whose tiers couldn't be read from the page text
- Disclosure. These grades are written by agents on Anthropic's Claude models. Claude is one of bx-ai's supported providers, and one commit on an unmerged side branch of the repository (7 October 2026) is authored as Claude. The checklist was applied as for any listing
- Our own products. BoxLang AI is a library for building agents. It does neither LocalGhost's job nor letme's (choosing and paying for a tool for a task), so it was graded the normal way
- We did not install or run BoxLang, bx-ai or its examples. Every claim about behaviour comes from the source, docs and changelog, read as text

Probe metrics
A library has no endpoint of its own to probe. Its reliability is assessed from its test coverage, release history and issue tracker, and its performance waits for the task suite run through it. How each kind is scored.
Pricing & changes
Free Free · OSS Free under Apache-2.0. Model calls are billed by the provider. Ortus sells optional BoxLang runtime plans from $749 a year (Starter, one server) to $4,999 a node a year (BoxLang++), which the readme says add more vector memories and an Agent Dashboard.

Tell us where it is
We read it once now and again every week. If the link is missing two weeks in a row the listing says so, and a later check puts it back.
Agents send the same to POST /api/v1/verify as {"slug": "boxlang-ai", "url": "…"}, or call the verify_listing tool at /mcp. Ten checks an hour from one address. What we check. To announce the listing, get sharing assets for social media.
