ClawQL

Cost Plus Drugs demo — one governed gateway for multi-LLM pharmacy reads, with patient approval and audit before any write.

Not medical advice · Mock orders only · Prescription stays with a clinician

What we built

Cost Plus already exposes a public, unauthenticated MCP for price and availability (their scope page stops at estimates). The valuable next step — and this demo — is safely letting agents stage consequential actions across Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, and the rest without giving any model unilateral write power or unrestricted PHI.

  • Uses their real read MCP

    ClawQL federates Cost Plus Drugs’ public pricing MCP unchanged — search, estimates, pharmacy locator. We do not re-pitch a price connector they already shipped.

  • Governed mock writes

    There is no public ordering API. A local mock refill tool parks behind digest-bound human approval so agents cannot place orders themselves.

  • BAA-aware multi-model routing

    Patient fields are redacted before non-BAA providers. Public cash prices still flow; PHI does not leave the gateway without policy.

  • Token-efficient catalog access

    Targeted drug search is ~950× smaller than dumping the full CPD catalog — the gateway prefers compact tools for price questions.

Each thing the demo does

Same sequence as the local gateway smoke: discover → price → compact → BAA route → mandate → human resume → audit.
  1. Discover Cost Plus tools through one gateway

    Action Agent connects to ClawQL HTTP MCP and runs search. One gateway ranks live CPD pricing ops plus the mock write surface — not a pile of point MCP servers.

    Result15 federated operations indexed from CPD + mock write MCP

  2. Read live cash prices (not medical advice)

    Action execute routes mcp__cost_plus_drugs_pricing__search to https://mcp.costplusdrugs.com/. Example: atorvastatin 20mg cash pricing for a 30-count fill.

    ResultLive lookup ok · ~4.5KB structured response · $5.41 cash (fixture/live demo)

  3. Prefer compact tools over full-catalog dumps

    Action pricelist_all / pricelist_cpd return multi-megabyte payloads. ClawQL steers agents to search / pricelist_*_search for the same answer.

    Result~3.9KB targeted search vs ~3.7MB full CPD catalog (~949×)

  4. Redact PHI before non-BAA models

    Action Before any multi-model hop, BAA routing keeps patient fields on BAA-covered providers and strips them for others. Public cash prices still flow.

    ResultGrok path: patient_name / address / rx_number redacted · Claude-BAA retains fields

  5. Stage a refill — agent cannot self-approve

    Action place_refill_order is policy: mandate. The gateway parks the exact drug, NDC, quantity, and quoted price under a digest-bound execution id.

    Resultstatus: mandate_required · agent self-approve → agent_cannot_approve

  6. Human resumes the exact parked order

    Action Only a human (patient/operator) may clawql resume / MCP resume. Args cannot be swapped at approval time. Labeled MOCK — never sent to Cost Plus.

    Resultaccepted_mock · bound NDC 00904-6291-61 · qty 30 · $5.41

  7. Everything lands in the audit trail

    Action Price reads, mandate park, and resume finalize append to the MCP audit ring (and can dual-write durable WORM in production).

Safety posture

What this demo will not do

Aligned with Cost Plus Drugs’ own MCP scope — and with how you should talk about it publicly.
  • No clinical, dosing, or substitution advice
  • No claim that a real Cost Plus order was placed
  • No real patient data — synthetic fields only until BAAs and HIPAA safeguards exist
  • No “HIPAA certified” marketing (HIPAA is about safeguards + BAAs, not a product badge)
Run it yourself

Reproduce locally

Example pack lives in the monorepo. Offline smoke needs only Node; the live gateway path needs a built ClawQL checkout and network access to Cost Plus.
