AI SECURITY / AUTHORITY CONTROL

Watchdog

Prompt injection should not equal authority.

Watchdog is being developed as a policy enforcement boundary between an AI agent's reasoning and the tools capable of causing real-world side effects.

ARCHITECTURE

Intelligence requests. Policy decides.

UNTRUSTED INPUT

CAPABILITY REQUEST

WATCHDOG

TOOL BROKER

The intended design prevents agents from directly reaching privileged tools. Requests pass through an explicit policy decision point first.

POLICY QUESTIONS

Every action has context.

Who?

Which agent or identity requested the capability?

What?

Which capability is being requested?

Where?

Which resource or trust domain is targeted?

Why?

What input and provenance caused the request?

DECISIONS

ALLOW

Request satisfies the active policy.

DENY

Capability or resource is not permitted.

HUMAN AUTHORIZATION

High-consequence actions can require explicit human presence.

The public demonstration uses simulated capabilities and fabricated data.
