The missing authorization layer
for AI agents

Drop-in security middleware that gives every AI agent a cryptographic identity, evaluates every action against policies, and produces a tamper-evident audit trail โ€” powered by Auth0.

The Five Gates

Every request. Every agent. No exceptions.

A five-layer protocol that runs in under 1ms, invisible to agents but enforced on every call.

What AgentGate Builds

Enterprise-grade security for every agent

Six security layers that work together to ensure no agent ever acts without authorization.

๐Ÿ”‘

Cryptographic Agent Identity

Every agent gets a SPIFFE ID and signed JWT. Anonymous agents are rejected before they touch any resource.

โš–๏ธ

OPA Policy Engine

AuthZEN 4-tuple evaluation (subject + action + resource + context) with natural language policy compilation.

๐Ÿ“ฑ

CIBA Human-in-the-Loop

Sensitive actions trigger Auth0 Guardian push notifications. Users approve or deny in real-time.

๐Ÿฆ

Auth0 Token Vault

Agents never see raw OAuth tokens. Token Vault issues scoped, time-limited credentials with 60s TTL.

๐Ÿ”—

Hash-Chained Audit Trail

SHA-256 hash chain over every decision. Tamper-evident, exportable as JSON, verifiable in-dashboard.

โšก

Cascade Revocation

Revoke one agent, one service, or everything (PANIC). All downstream tokens destroyed instantly.

Framework Agnostic

One endpoint. Every agent framework.

Any agent that can make an HTTP request works with AgentGate. No framework lock-in.

Quick Start

Connect your agent in 2 API calls

No SDK required. Any agent that can make HTTP requests works.

1Register your agent
curl -X POST /api/agents/register \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ag_live_..." \
  -d '{
    "name": "my-agent",
    "framework": "crewai",
    "capabilities": ["gmail.read"],
    "trustTier": "T1"
  }'
# โ†’ { "agentId": "...", "token": "eyJ..." }
2Authorize every action
curl -X POST /api/authorize \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer ag_live_..." \
  -d '{
    "agentToken": "eyJ...",
    "action": { "type": "read",
      "operation": "list_emails",
      "service": "gmail" }
  }'
# โ†’ { "allowed": true, "token": {...} }
