AI agents decide, call tools and act without a deterministic, auditable path. Traditional security and monitoring tools do not cover that. Teams cannot show an agent was safe before launch or that each action was governed afterward. Fairway gates each action and records the evidence.

Could you build this?

Partial A proxy or middleware that logs and gates agent tool calls is vibe-codeable, but a credible governance product needs security-grade policy enforcement and integrations that require domain expertise.

What it would actually take: The architecture would be a proxy or SDK that intercepts agent tool calls, evaluates them against deterministic policies, and writes tamper-evident audit logs (e.g., hash-chained records). The hard parts are making enforcement robust against prompt injection and bypass, covering many tool and framework integrations, and meeting audit and compliance requirements. Building it credibly takes security engineering expertise and real-world agent deployment experience.
