Chronos Gateway

The firewall between AI agents and your production data

AI agents have already wiped production databases. Chronos Gateway is how you let yours write to real customer data anyway. Every agent gets a run token, never your Postgres password, and a private copy of one customer's rows. Safe changes merge back in one transaction, every row checked against live data. Deletes and big changes stop and wait for a human, who approves in plain English. Your row-level security still decides what it can write. Self-hosted. Free. Postgres 12-18, Supabase, Neon.

Could you build this?

Partial A basic Postgres proxy with per-agent credentials and copy-on-write data branches is buildable, but safe transactional merge-back with validation across real production data needs deep database internals and security expertise.

What it would actually take: Build a Postgres-wire-compatible proxy (or use a logical replication layer) that issues scoped run tokens and serves each agent a branched or sampled copy of data. The hard parts are correct isolation, row-level change capture, and atomic merge with validation that cannot corrupt production. This needs someone who understands Postgres internals, transaction semantics, and security, plus rigorous testing before trusting it with customer data.
