What it does

AI agent guardrails and authorization infrastructure for production AI. APort provides runtime guardrails, AI passport verification, and policy enforcement before the API call. Secure OpenClaw, LangChain, CrewAI agents with pre-action verification and court-admissible proof.

APort gives AI agents passports, pre-action authorization, guardrails, and audit for Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Actions, MCP, LangChain, CrewAI, and agentic work.

Start with a no-secret GitHub Repository Guard, then install pre-action hooks for Claude Code, Cursor, MCP, and framework runtimes with npx. Hosted enforcement gives teams signed decisions. Role descriptions are soft. Quality gates should be deterministic. APort enforces what each agent can do and what they must deliver — before they proceed. Deliverable policy checks required evidence before completion. The same infrastructure that blocks rm -rf also checks repository changes, MCP tool calls, sensitive file reads, and GitHub merge attempts before they proceed. Open Agent Passport identity with owner, assurance level, capabilities, limits, regions, and status. Portable across runtimes and…from aport.io

    Hi HN! We just launched Codacy Guardrails, an IDE extension with a CLI for code analysis and MCP server that enforces security & quality rules on AI-generated code in real-time. It hooks into AI coding assistants (like VS Code Agent Mode, Cursor, Windsurf), silently scanning and fixing AI-suggested code that has vulnerabilities or violates your coding standards, while the code it’s being generated. We built this because coding agents can be a double-edged sword. They do boost productivity, but can easily introduce insecure or non-compliant code. One recent research team at NYU found that 40%…
