Capability-scoped authority for every agent and tool call. Each call is evaluated against policy before it executes, with authority revoked when behavior drifts.
When an agent can post to a ledger, query a database, or email a customer, a bad decision is no longer a bad answer. It’s an action. Least privilege has to be enforced at the moment of the call.
An agent with broad tool access takes actions far beyond its intended scope: moving money, deleting records, emailing customers.
A poisoned document or prompt hijacks the agent and turns its legitimate tools into the attacker’s: exfiltration, fraud, sabotage.
A low-trust input coerces a high-privilege agent into acting on its behalf, crossing trust boundaries it was never meant to bridge.
One unchecked call (db.drop_table, a bulk delete, an irreversible transfer) and there’s no undo and no record of who decided.
Agents read sensitive data, then leak it through a tool call, an API request, or a crafted link. No human ever sees it leave.
Connected agents pull in third-party and MCP tools with their own permissions: a supply chain you didn’t vet acting in your name.
Grant each agent only the tools and data it needs. Every call is checked against its capability grants before it runs. Anything out of scope is refused, not logged after the fact.
However many agents you run, every tool and MCP call funnels through a single gateway that evaluates it against policy. No agent talks to a sensitive tool directly.
Agents earn authority for a task, not forever. When behavior deviates from the expected pattern mid-session, Intercept revokes the grant and signs the revocation.
The agent’s tool call is captured at the gateway before execution.
Capability grants, rate limits, intent, and context are checked against policy.
Allow and execute, or block and revoke, in single-digit milliseconds.
The verdict and full context are signed into the evidence ledger.
Watch Intercept scope authority, block a dangerous tool call, and sign the decision, on a real agent.
