Central policy engine
Versioned rules for what each agent can access. Targets concrete risks — secrets, exfiltration, unsafe shell, dangerous infra commands. Org, team, or developer granularity.
Centralized policy and human-in-the-loop control for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Pi.
Today’s prompts ask yes or no. Ambit asks does the blast radius warrant interrupting the developer?
Designed for Security. Drops into the stack your engineers already use.
Versioned rules for what each agent can access. Targets concrete risks — secrets, exfiltration, unsafe shell, dangerous infra commands. Org, team, or developer granularity.
Full audit trail of every agent action. Dashboards plus headless data retrieval — pull events via MCP or CLI into your SIEM and workflow.
Block exfiltration and unsafe behavior automatically. Targets the actions that actually cause incidents — not theatre.
Developers can override policy via coding-agent hooks — warned of risks before they proceed. Velocity preserved, risk surfaced.
A growing library of agent threat scenarios — and the policies that stop them.
Coding agents ask before running risky commands. After dozens of safe prompts in a row, developers stop reading. The destructive one slips through on muscle memory.
Commands matching destructive patterns (delete, drop, force-push, kubectl against production) are held for security review — even if the developer just approved twenty others.
Developers kick off long-running agent sessions and walk away. When the agent hits a problem — failing tests, full disk, a stuck branch — it improvises with destructive commands no one is reviewing.
Irreversible operations (filesystem deletes against tracked paths, force-pushes to protected branches, production API writes) are blocked when the developer is offline — and an alert routes to Security for review.
Agents make hundreds of network calls during normal work. Most are legitimate. Some go wherever the prompt — or a poisoned input — tells them to go. There's no review process for any of it.
An egress allowlist of expected destinations, defined by Security, enforced at the network layer. Calls to anything outside the list are blocked and alerted — no developer involvement needed.
A customer slips a malicious instruction into a Zendesk ticket. It auto-syncs to Linear, gets summarized by a triage agent, and lands on a coding automation as an internal “ready-to-fix” note. Each hop trusts the last; by the final hop the instruction looks like it came from inside the team.
Provenance is tracked across the full tool chain. When tainted bytes reach the final action layer — the destructive command — Ambit blocks it, even though every intermediary “trusted” its input.
The same agent command gets a different verdict depending on where it runs and what it can actually reach.
Risk context displayed. One keystroke to approve or deny.
Blast radius is ephemeral. Agent stays unblocked.
One policy. Different verdict per runtime. Not just block / allow.
“We don’t have a problem with developers using AI agents — we have a problem with us not knowing what those agents are doing on our machines, against our infrastructure.”
