Description

Open-source supervisor that sits underneath AI coding agents at the OS level. It scores security-relevant syscalls against 18 filters before the kernel runs them: safe calls proceed, ambiguous ones freeze for review, dangerous ones are denied. MPL-2.0, local.

Could you build this?

No Requires low-level OS kernel interaction, syscall interception, eBPF or ptrace hooks, and robust security sandbox architecture that cannot be reliably built via simple vibe coding.

What it would actually take: Building grith requires deep systems programming expertise in C or Rust, leveraging Linux kernel features like seccomp-bpf, ptrace, or eBPF LSM to intercept process execution and syscalls before execution. The engine needs zero-overhead deterministic pattern matching, secure taint tracking, and robust avoidance of time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) race conditions.
