AgentGavel Puts AI Agent Governance Under Attack

agentgavel.dev Observed source
Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An open-source benchmark tests whether AI agent frameworks enforce permissions, approval gates, tool boundaries, and tamper-evident audit trails.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-06 issue.

Field notes

AgentGavel structures each test around a setup, an adversarial probe, observable events, and a deterministic validation rule. Its methodology separates runtime-enforced controls from model refusals, treating the latter as a repeated-run rate rather than proof of enforcement. The documented cases include replayed approvals, undeclared tool parameters, secrets entering model context, and audit records whose order or contents have been altered.
