Agent Requests Access

Your AI agent attempts to reach a network endpoint or access a file. The watch.ly agent, running locally on your infrastructure, intercepts the request.

Feature Set

Everything you need to maintain full control over your AI agents' access.

Sub-Second Latency

Notifications arrive in under 500ms. Your agent barely notices the checkpoint.

Flexible Rules

Create allow/deny rules with wildcards and patterns. Simple rules or JavaScript for advanced logic.

Time-Limited Access

Grant temporary permissions that expire automatically. Perfect for one-off tasks.

Full Audit Log

Every request, every decision, every access event recorded and searchable.

Use Cases

Development

Allow your coding agent access to package registries and repositories, nothing more. Get notified of unexpected network requests.

Research

Permit web browsing for research, but prevent data exfiltration. Approve new domains as needed.

Enterprise

Connect agents to internal systems with confidence. Lock down sensitive endpoints with allow lists. Maintain complete audit trails.
