    Every other gateway is detect-and-block. You don't get a security grade. You don't get red team in CI. We built the one that does. PromptGuard is a proxy: change your base URL (one line with our SDK, or a few lines without), and every request gets checked for prompt injection, PII leaks, jailbreaks, and abuse. 20+ threat vectors, 39+ PII types. We also ship a red team suite and an autonomous agent that mutates attacks to find bypasses - you get a grade (A-F) and a GitHub Action that runs these tests on every PR. So you see where you're weak before you ship. Works with OpenAI, Anthropic,…

    At Deno we've been using OpenClaw and other agents increasingly for addressing production problems in Deno Deploy - when a PagerDuty alert fires, the agent starts researching the cause and making fixes. In order to do this, the agent needs access to real production systems - postgres, kubernetes, gcp, clickhouse, github, etc. But this is dangerous to say the least - we want destructive actions to be reviewed by other LLMs, approved by humans, and logged appropriately. Claw Patrol terminates TCP connections over WireGuard or Tailscale, then parses application protocols (eg http, postgres,…

    Hi HN, Matvey, Ildar, Joey, and Dominik here. If you're building LLM agents that use tools, you're probably worried about prompt injection attacks that can hijack those tools. We were too, and found that solutions like prompt-based filtering or secondary "guard" LLMs can be unreliable. Our thesis is that agent security should be handled at the network level between the agent and the LLM, just like a traditional web application firewall. So we built Archestra Platform: an open-source gateway that acts as a secure proxy for your AI agents. It's designed to be a deterministic firewall against…
