Firewall for AI Agents

What it does

Stop dangerous AI agent actions before they execute. Policy enforcement, prompt injection protection, human approvals, and compliance evidence in one SDK.

If an LLM's output ever becomes a real action - a tool call, a database write, an email - Verdicter enforces what it's allowed to do before it happens.

Intercept every tool call before it executes. Enforce runtime policies with ALLOW, DENY, or ESCALATE - in milliseconds. Edit the arguments. The engine re-evaluates every change - these are real verdicts, not canned responses. Drop the amount below $1,000 and verify the payee to get an ALLOW. This is a demo of the policy engine, not the product itself - the real Verdicter is an SDK you install in your own agent, plus a dashboard for policies and audit trails. Try your own prompt Add @verdicter/sdk (npm or pip) to your agent's codebase. A few lines, no infrastructure to run. Define what your agents can and can't do - in the dashboard or in code. Test them in the sandbox first. Verdicter…from verdicter.dev

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
