Valencia AI Governance Startup Deploys Open-Source Nervous System Framework
Introduction
In a significant move for both government and enterprise sectors, a Valencia-based startup has introduced the Nervous System framework, an open-source governance layer designed to manage 13 autonomous AI agents. This deployment across five major messaging platforms aims to streamline operations and ensure compliance.
Framework Features
The Nervous System serves as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, which is available on npm (version 1.10.0). Its robust features include:
- Configuration drift detection
- SHA-256 hash-chained audit trails
- Behavioral rule enforcement
- Automated compliance checking
By automating repetitive tasks, this framework promises 40-60 percent cost savings for service businesses.
From Training Humans to Training AI
The founder of Levels Of Self, with over a decade of experience in coaching and training, has leveraged his background to create a governance architecture that mirrors the accountability structures used in human training. “Engineers build capability. Trainers build accountability. That is why this works,” he stated.
Governance Success
The Nervous System has successfully identified over 99 governance violations in production, with zero bypasses, showcasing its effectiveness in enforcing rules at the infrastructure level.
Government and Enterprise Readiness
Levels Of Self holds various registrations at federal, state, and county levels, including:
- SAM.gov registration with multiple NAICS codes
- California Small Business certification
- LA County Local Small Business Enterprise certification
The company also maintains commercial general liability insurance of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate.
Industry Validation
The deployment of the Nervous System framework coincides with increased momentum in the field of multi-agent AI systems. Notably, NVIDIA has released NemoClaw, a multi-agent orchestration framework, further validating the architecture utilized by Levels Of Self.
“NVIDIA built the orchestration engine. We built the governance layer that makes orchestration safe,” the founder remarked. This aligns with current regulatory requirements, such as Executive Order 14110 and the EU AI Act, which mandate auditable AI operations.
Conclusion
The Nervous System MCP server is now listed in the Anthropic MCP directory and is available for installation at npmjs.com/package/mcp-nervous-system. The open-source repositories are hosted on GitHub under the Levels Of Self organization.
As AI governance continues to evolve, Levels Of Self stands at the forefront, offering comprehensive solutions that combine automation with compliance, thus paving the way for safer AI deployments across various sectors.
