Inspect the enforcement point
A UI that catalogs agents is not enough. Verify where policy is enforced, whether agents can bypass it, how credentials are issued, and what happens if the control service is unavailable.
Centralize the decision and evidence. Keep agent execution loosely coupled from any single model, framework, or tool protocol.
Test interoperability
Confirm the system governs your frameworks, model providers, MCP servers, native tools, and existing identity provider without forcing every workload through one proprietary runtime.
Read the operational surface
Review upgrade strategy, migration tooling, audit export, metrics, rate controls, high availability, backup, security response, licensing, and the project’s maintainer health.
Generate a system-specific version
Use the interactive builder to translate these principles into layers and controls for your fleet size, framework, model set, tools, identity, and data requirements.
