GenAI-Security-Project / agent-control-standard
The open standard for runtime agent control — declarative hooks, policy enforcement, and observability across AI agent frameworks.
Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does

What it does
ACS is a wire specification. It lets a separate Guardian Agent inspect what an AI agent is about to do and permit, deny, or modify that action before it happens, over an authenticated channel, with an audit trail that reconstructs after the fact. The fastest way to understand what that means is to make it deny something.
