Agent OS
VerifiedToolkit for enforcing policies and auditing autonomous AI agents in production.
What is Agent OS?
This open-source toolkit secures autonomous agents by handling governance tasks including access controls, agent identification, and audit trails. It works with any framework after a single installation and focuses on deterministic checks rather than prompt-based safety.
Actions such as tool calls or delegations are validated before execution using active policies, ensuring structural prevention of issues like privilege escalation. It supports multi-agent environments by tracking individual identities even when sharing credentials.
Designed for teams deploying agents that interact with external services, databases, or other agents, it addresses regulatory needs for verifiable records of decisions and policy applications.
What you can build with Agent OS
Prevent Unauthorized Actions
Stop agents from performing restricted operations such as dropping database tables even if they have broad service access through OAuth or IAM.
Identify Specific Agents in Multi-Agent Systems
Track which agent performed an action when multiple agents share API keys, enabling precise incident response instead of generic attribution.
Generate Compliance Audit Records
Produce tamper-evident logs of every decision including active policies, requests, and allow or deny outcomes for auditors and regulators.
Install Agent OS
pip install agent-governance-toolkit[full]pip install agent-governance-toolkit[full]- 1Ensure Python 3.10 or higher is installed on your system.
- 2Run the command to install the package with full features via pip.
- 3Add the governance components to your agent code for intercepting tool calls and delegations.
- 4Configure policies to define allowed actions and identity settings for your agents.
- 5Deploy the agents and review generated logs for enforcement events and audits.
Agent OS: pros & cons
Pros
- +Deterministic enforcement makes disallowed actions structurally impossible rather than probabilistic.
- +Works across frameworks with minimal setup after one installation command.
- +Provides built-in support for identity tracking and tamper-evident auditing.
- +Covers key compliance areas including OWASP Agentic Top 10 recommendations.
Cons
- –Currently in public preview which may include breaking changes before general availability.
- –Requires explicit integration into agent workflows rather than working automatically.
- –Focuses on application-level controls so prompt injection risks still need separate handling.
Frequently asked questions
No, it complements them by adding code-level interception that makes certain violations impossible regardless of prompts.
