agent-oversight Configure Claude Code Approval Gates by Project Risk Level You want Claude Code to keep moving on throwaway work and stay careful on production. The same global setting can't do both. Here's the three-tier config that matches gate strictness to actual project risk.
agent-oversight Argus vs. Coograph: Real-Time Observability for Claude Code Your Claude Code agent ran for two hours. Now nobody understands what it built — and it never surfaced a single error. Here's the two-tool observability stack that catches drift before it compounds.
agent-oversight When Should Your Agent Ask Before Acting? A 3-Tier Risk Framework You're choosing between step-by-step approval and full autonomy — but that's the wrong binary. Here's the 3-tier risk framework that matches oversight to operation blast radius, not agent preference.
agent-oversight Inside-the-Loop vs. Outside-the-Loop: Evaluating Agent Architectures Your agent ran. You have no idea what decisions it made along the way. That's not a trust problem — it's an architecture problem.
agent-oversight Catch Agent Mistakes Before They Execute: Agent Verifier + Conduct Your agent is about to write an API key to disk. You have 10 seconds to catch it. Here's how to automate that check — before the damage is done.
agent-oversight AI Agent Disaster Postmortems: The 3 Structural Guardrails Nine seconds. That's how long it took a Claude agent to wipe PocketOS's entire production database and all backups. Here are the three structural controls that would have stopped it — and every incident like it.
agent-oversight Where to Gate Your AI Coding Agent: A 3-Checkpoint Framework Most developers run zero approval gates on their AI coding agents. The other extreme — gating every tool call — just rebuilds a slow human workflow. Here's the minimal 3-checkpoint architecture that covers real risk without the noise.
agent-oversight The CORE Agentic Workflow: Task → Plan Review → Approve → PR You dispatched an agent. It ran. Now you're staring at a diff you don't fully recognize. Here's the two-checkpoint workflow that keeps human judgment where it matters — before execution, not after.
agent-oversight Why Your Claude Agent Ignores Rules Past ~15 Tool Calls Your Claude agent follows its system prompt for the first dozen tool calls. Then it stops — no error, no warning, the constraint still present, the model no longer honoring it. Here's what's happening and how to fix it architecturally.
agent-oversight Hardening Claude Code in GitHub Actions After the CVSS 9.4 CVE A CVSS 9.4 CVE hit Claude Code CI/CD pipelines in April 2026 — crafted PR titles exfiltrating API keys. Most workflows are still unpatched. Here's the five-control fix.
agent-oversight How to Build Human-in-the-Loop Approval Gates for AI Coding Agents Your agent just ran something you didn't ask for. Here's the three-pattern stack — PreToolUse hooks, ThumbGate blocklists, and mobile approval forwarding — that keeps agents fast without giving them a blank check.
agent-oversight Prompt Injection in AI Coding Agents: 3 Attack Vectors, 4 Defenses A single PR comment achieves 85% exploit success against Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and GitHub Copilot. Here's the full attack surface and the four-layer defensive stack that actually bounds the damage.
agent-oversight How to Review AI-Generated Code That Ships Faster Than You Can Read AI agents write code faster than you can read it. Here's the four-checkpoint workflow — scope bounds, approval gates, diff review, test verification — that keeps you genuinely in control without killing the speed.
agent-oversight The Permission Layer Is 98% of Agent Engineering Only 1–2% of agent code is actual AI logic. The other 98% — permission systems, hook composition, sandboxing, context management, subagent delegation — is what determines whether your agent is safe to run in production.
agent-oversight How to Audit What Your AI Agent Actually Did After the Session Your AI agent finished the session. But did it stay on task? Here's the post-run audit to catch silent scope creep — before it compounds into something you can't easily reverse.
agent-oversight Why Claude Code PreToolUse Hooks Can Still Be Bypassed Your Claude Code hooks can block `cat .env` and still leak your secrets. Here's exactly why — and the four-layer stack that actually bounds blast radius.
