AI agents are powerful because they do things — they read files, run commands, send messages, search your data. That power comes with a question most agent frameworks don't answer well:
What stops the agent from doing things it shouldn't?
Most agent systems bolt on safety as an afterthought: a prompt that says "be careful," maybe a regex filter on outputs, and hope for the best. That's not security. That's a suggestion.
OpenPawz takes a different approach. We treat agent security as a systems engineering problem — not a prompt engineering one. The result is a 12-layer defense-in-depth architecture enforced at the Rust engine level, where the agent has zero ability to bypass controls regardless of what any prompt says.
