I’ve been cautiously (and nervously) playing with openclaw and a number of other claw and code agents for a while now, but trying out different ones was tricky so I wanted a simple way to switch out channel ownership… then I wanted more. Security is hard, and I wanted to make it easier. This is FAR from polished, and no claims that I’m a “security expert” but I tried to think and research a bit on different threat models (I think of 2 broad ones for agents, external adversaries and internal agentic failures) and try and offer best in class protection on both, while also not having any special opinion on what a good agent may look like today or in the future… this is just a gateway, and hopefully one that can work for nearly any agent now or in the future, but trying to come with batteries included for some of the more popular options today like openclaw, zeroclaw, claw-code, clause and opencode, not all there yet but contribution and critiques welcome.
