Agent Bridle puts a bridle on autonomous software
Agent Bridle is a control gateway for AI agents, adding budgets, approvals, audit trails, threat detection, and a kill switch between agents and external tools.
Field notes
The proposed gateway assigns each agent run a dollar cap and records actions against an agent identity, run, and user. Its example invoice-bot trace shows a $5 budget, a paused email action awaiting approval, a repeated-call warning after 14 repetitions, and termination at step 61. The page also describes configurable approval points for payments, deletes, and outbound email, with audit exports intended for security review.
