Context Fence Puts a Local Gate in Front of AI Agent Tools

Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A local MCP policy proxy checks AI coding-agent requests against YAML rules before they reach a tool.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-21 issue.

Why it surfaced

Context Fence responds to agent data leaks with a guard that stays on the developer’s machine: schema checks under 10ms, secret stripping, prompt-injection detection, and an append-only SQLite audit log. The site is unusually candid about its stage—there are no live customers yet, only internal tests and a hosted console on the roadmap.
