I built a governance layer so an AI agent can build its own tools but can't cross a line I set
The author built Arcforge, a governance layer that lets an AI agent generate and register its own tools (e.g., a payment tool via OpenAPI) while enforcing policy limits (e.g., blocking a $9,999 charge) before the agent ever holds the API key. It's an early prototype seeking feedback on guardrails.
