Description
HELIOS is an AI agent control plane for security, governance, authorization, and observability. Give autonomous AI agents identity, enforce policies before they act, control access to tools, APIs, code, data, and infrastructure, and maintain evidence of every action. HELIOS helps developers, infrastructure engineers, and security teams deploy AI agents with enforceable boundaries and auditable behavior.

Could you build this?
No Building an enterprise control plane for AI agents requires deep systems architecture, distributed policy engines, real-time runtime proxies, and tamper-evident audit logs designed for mission-critical enterprise environments.
What it would actually take: A production implementation requires high-throughput reverse proxy gateways (in Go or Rust) capable of intercepting and evaluating MCP, REST, and tool invocations against policy engines like Open Policy Agent (OPA/Rego) with sub-millisecond latency. The hard challenges include runtime sandbox management, zero-trust cryptographic identity attestation (SPIFFE/SPIRE) for transient agent processes, and append-only tamper-evident audit logging (merkle tree ledgers). This necessitates distributed systems infrastructure, zero-trust security, and cloud networking specialists.
