A developer has implemented an action firewall for AI agents to prevent catastrophic failures, particularly those involving financial spend. The system distinguishes between actions that are never legitimate, such as large-scale network scans, which are deterministically blocked, and actions that could be legitimate but risky, like provisioning cloud infrastructure, which are paused for human approval. This approach aims to provide honest coverage of agent security by blocking what can be covered and acknowledging what cannot, ensuring agents do not incur excessive costs or perform unauthorized actions. AI
