The AI Flight Recorder for Agents
Autonomous AI needs a control tower and a flight recorder: permission before action, proof after action, and a kill boundary when behavior drifts.
The new operating primitive
Agent infrastructure should answer three questions before every model call: is this agent allowed to act, who is accountable for the action, and can the organization prove what happened later? That is different from routing, tracing, or generic guardrails.
Test findings
Pre-flight authorization evaluates identity, user, team, budget, passport, and kill state before upstream.
Agent passports make AI workers durable identities with owners, purpose, risk class, and proof history.
Signed decision receipts create the evidence trail for both allowed and denied calls.
The kill boundary stops the next model call without requiring every application team to redeploy code.
💡
The winning category is not LLM proxy. It is AI Authorization Infrastructure.
