An in-development layer for existing databases that aims to flag risky SQL changes, request confirmation, and make mistakes reversible.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-27 issue.
For
Database operators and teams using AI agents
Worth noticing
The example flags an UPDATE without WHERE that would affect 1,248,000 rows, and shows a 24-hour undo window.

Field notes

The page separates the first planned release, called Safety Net, from nine additional modules marked for later. It describes desktop, CLI, plugin, gateway, and database-extension versions at different rollout stages, so the compatibility list should not be read as a list of currently available clients. The landing page also says the early-access link opens the visitor’s email app rather than a form.
