Could you build this?

Partial The compliance dashboard is straightforward web development, but issuing and validating X.509 cryptographic identities, mTLS tunnels, and real-time behavioral telemetry for autonomous agents demands specialized security engineering.

What it would actually take: A real implementation requires a Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) with a managed Certificate Authority (e.g., HashiCorp Vault or step-ca) that provisions agent-level mTLS certificates. Additionally, it requires eBPF or proxy-level network tap architecture to passively inspect agent RPCs and HTTP calls to monitor behavior against policy without introducing unacceptable latency.
