Product Overview
What is Harden?
Harden (Agentic Integrity Foundation) is a specialized endpoint security guardrail designed to safeguard local workstations and cloud infrastructure from unintended autonomous agent actions. Operating custom cybersecurity models directly on developer devices, Harden inspects tool calls, terminal commands, and API requests before they execute. Unlike basic sandboxes or credential proxies, it actively evaluates intent and impact across supported tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex, safely blocking catastrophic commands, steering agents toward safe retries, and maintaining fully local audit records.
Key Features
Pre-Execution Tool Interception
Inspects and evaluates terminal commands, cloud scripts, and agent tool calls in real time to prevent destructive actions before execution.
On-Device Security Engine
Runs proprietary cybersecurity models locally on developer machines without transmitting code, context, or private telemetry to external cloud servers.
Broad Agent Ecosystem Support
Integrates via native hooks and MCP proxy fallbacks across major coding agents, including Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Kiro, Hermes, and OpenClaw.
Block-and-Steer Remediation
Safely halts hazardous commands like production deletions while supplying safe retry alternatives to keep agent workflows moving forward.
Local Decision Store
Maintains an unconstrained, local audit history of all allowed, modified, and blocked tool calls without mandatory account creation.
Use Cases
- Production Infrastructure Guardrails : Prevents coding agents from inadvertently deleting cloud namespaces, dropping remote databases, or running catastrophic deployment commands.
- Safe Autonomous Terminal Execution : Monitors shell commands during automated coding and refactoring sessions to halt dangerous file operations and privilege escalations.
- Credential and Data Leak Prevention : Stops agents from passing sensitive keys or proprietary code snippets into unauthorized external endpoints during task execution.
- Engineering Compliance and Auditing : Gives software teams verifiable, local activity logging and zero-telemetry security monitoring across autonomous developer workstations.
