AgentGuard
The AI agent firewall: catches hijacks that pass every rule
Spend limits cap the money. They can't see that your agent's intent changed. A €300 payment to an allowlisted merchant, under every cap. Every rule passes — and GPT-5.6 holds it anyway, because gift cards aren't the API credits the agent was authorized to buy. AgentGuard adds a GPT-5.6 intent firewall between your agents and the real world, plus a human approval gate, a tamper-evident ledger you can break yourself, and an MCP server any agent can plug into. Live demo, no signup, no API key.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
Here's a payment one of my agents tried to make:
€300 → an allowlisted merchant
Under every spend cap
Every rule: green ✅
It got stopped anyway.
The payload had a note attached — "gift cards for personal use, do not log this" — and this agent's declared mission was "buy API credits from approved vendors, max €2000/day." GPT-5.6 read the mismatch and held the payment for a human.
No spend limit on earth catches that one. Rules can't see intent. A model can.
That gap is why I built AgentGuard.
I run a one-person AI studio. My agents send emails, touch client data, move money through APIs. What keeps me up at night isn't whether they work — it's whether they're still mine. One instruction hidden in a webpage or a PDF invoice, and a legitimate agent starts working for someone else while holding all my credentials.
So AgentGuard sits between the agent and the real world:
🔒 A deterministic policy floor — caps, allowlists, integer cents. Boring on purpose.
🧠 A GPT-5.6 intent firewall — the agent declares its mission up front, GPT-5.6 judges every action against it.
✋ A human approval gate — and if the intent layer goes down, actions drop to human review instead of quietly passing.
⛓️ A hash-chained ledger — every decision becomes evidence.
🔌 An MCP server — plug your own agent in.
Two things you can do right now, no signup, no API key:
**Press RUN LIVE GPT-5.6 CHECK.** That's a real inference happening while you watch — model, response ID, latency and UTC timestamp on screen before the verdict is written to the ledger. I don't know what it'll say before it says it. That's the point.
**Press TAMPER TEST.** It corrupts a real database row and the verifier names the exact broken sequence, then restores it. Don't trust my "tamper-evident" claim — break it yourself.

Built solo in 5 days with Codex, one gate at a time — no phase advanced until it produced real pytest output. 220 tests, all green. Codex caught the float-money trap before I wrote a line, and a transaction split that would've left actions with no audit trail.
GPT-5.6 isn't a build tool here, it's the product: it writes every verdict you see. And the demo agent that gets hijacked runs on GPT-5.6 too. GPT-5.6 watching GPT-5.6.
Code's open: github.com/doctormizio777777/agentguard
I'll be here all day — happy to get into the fail-closed logic, the MCP wiring, or why I refused to ship a free-text injection playground (it would've been an open proxy on my own key). Roast it 🔥
