NVIDIA just launched the Open Agent Safety Platform and I think it deserves more attention than it will get.
Right now most agent safety lives inside the model or the app. You tell the agent what it can’t do and hope it listens. NVIDIA’s own release says the pattern in recent incidents was the same: the agent got around the controls at the application layer to finish its task.
So NVIDIA is moving enforcement outside the model.
OpenShell is open source software that puts a boundary around the agent, traces every action and enforces policy as it runs. Sentry is a reference system design that runs on a separate chip and watches the agent from outside. Per NVIDIA, if an agent tries to move outside its boundary, Sentry quarantines and stops it in milliseconds.
As agents get more access to real systems, we can’t rely on the model behaving. The boundary has to live somewhere the agent can’t reach.
Watch how many companies build on top of this.

How Autonomous AI Agents Become Secure by Design With NVIDIA OpenShell
NVIDIA launches OpenShell, a secure-by-design runtime for autonomous AI agents that isolates agent operations in sandboxes and enforces security policies at the system level rather than relying on behavioral prompts. The toolkit, part of NVIDIA Agent Toolkit, enables enterprises to run coding agents and agentic workflows with unified policy management and compliance oversight.
