The explainable agent framework — backtrack a wrong answer to the exact context that caused it (evidence, not guesses). Built on footprintjs.

/**
 * plainData — copy the JSON data domain out of an untrusted value.
 *
 * MCP `structuredContent` arrives from a transport the library does not own,
 * so the value may be anything: a class instance, a Proxy, an object with
 * getters, or a plain object built in another realm (jest's environment,
 * `node:vm`, an iframe). This module answers one question — is this plain JSON
 * data? — and, when it is, hands back a COPY made of this realm's own objects
 * and arrays, built from property descriptors read once each.
 *
 * Why a copy rather than the value itself: whatever the source does after it
 * was checked (a Proxy trap that redefines a property it already reported, a
 * foreign prototype whose methods were replaced) cannot reach the copy. The
 * copy keeps every own key as a data property (`__proto__` included), keeps a
 * null prototype null, and holds nothing else: no getter, no foreign prototype, no Proxy.
 *
 * Plain objects and arrays are recognised by STRUCTURE, not by identity with
 * this realm's `Object.prototype`, because each realm has its own intrinsics:
 *
 *   - `Object.prototype` of a realm: its own prototype is null;
 *   - `Array.prototype` of a realm: an array whose own prototype is a realm's
 *     `Object.prototype`;
 *   - its own `constructor` is a data property holding that realm's native
 *     `Object` / `Array` (source text `function Object() { [native code] }`),
 *     whose own `prototype` data property points straight back at it — a link
 *     a user-made object or a Proxy cannot forge, because a native
 *     constructor's `prototype` is non-writable and non-configurable;
 *   - it carries the same own keys as this realm's intrinsic, each with the
 *     same descriptor kind (data or accessor), so an added getter is refused;
 *   - `Object.prototype.toString` names it `[object Object]` / `[object Array]`.
 *
 * Only descriptors are read: no getter, `toJSON` or `valueOf` runs. A Proxy is
 * refused before any trap runs wherever the runtime can say what a Proxy is
 * (Node's `util.types.isProxy`, reached through `process.getBuiltinModule` at
 * call time, so nothing is imported and the module stays browser-clean).
 * Elsewhere a Proxy's traps answer the walk like any object's descriptors do,
 * and only what they answered reaches the copy.

/**
 * A copy of `value` when it is a JSON object (not an array, not a scalar)
 * within the bounds, made of this realm's objects; `undefined` otherwise.
 * Never throws for a hostile value: any trap or check that throws refuses.
