Arden – Runtime policy enforcement and governance for AI agents
Intercepts tool calls before execution to block dangerous actions like DB deletes.
A governed, autonomous runtime for agent work too long, too stateful, or too recovery-sensitive to survive a single session.
Runtime-owned state with recovery rules for agent workflows that outlive a single session.

Intercepts tool calls before execution to block dangerous actions like DB deletes.
TypeScript agent runtime with HITL and cost tracking, but crowded against Replicate, Modal, and LangGraph Cloud.
One decorator caps agent costs, detects loops, logs telemetry—real guardrails for runaway LLMs.
Multi-agent governance with cost checkpoints, but orchestration is table stakes for GenAI now.
Type-system-enforced governance loop prevents agents from bypassing policy without code changes.
YAML runbook executor with destructive-step approval gates, exposable as MCP tools directly.
