What it does

AI agents are becoming powerful enough to move real money, sign contracts, and make consequential decisions autonomously. Agentic security has not kept up. We built cryptographically secure guardrails for AI agents using formal verification and zero knowledge proofs.

Welcome to your team’s developer platform

Your AI agent can be talked out of its guardrails. Prompt-based safety checks, LLM judges, and reasoning chains all share one weakness: the enforcement mechanism is itself a model. ICME replaces model judgment with formal verification, grammar-constrained decoding, and cryptography. Every action gets a cryptographic proof verifiable in under a second. SAT means allowed. UNSAT means blocked. Get mathematical guarantees, not vibes. Prompt-based systems, LLM judges, and reasoning checks all share the same weakness: the enforcement mechanism is itself a model. Models can be jailbroken, manipulated by prompt injection, and reasoned around. When a guardrail and an attack speak the same language,…from docs.icme.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%…
