Almega

The control frame for AI agents

Delegate everything.
Within limits they can't cross.

Set the boundaries once. Your agents run free inside them — and anything sensitive (spend, deploy, delete, send) pauses for your one-click OK. Enforced outside the agent, where a bug or an injection can't get past it.

I.Why "just tell it the rules" doesn't hold

The whole point of an agent is to hand it the work and walk away. But the moment it acts on its own, it can spend money, deploy code, delete data, send messages — and you have no real grip on what it actually does.

So you reach for the obvious fix: put the rules in the prompt. "Don't spend over $50. Don't touch prod." It feels like control. It isn't.

A model honors an instruction right up until it's task-motivated not to. A prompt injection from a page it reads can override your rules in a single line. A loop bug ignores them entirely. The instruction was never a wall — it was a wish.

And when you run a fleet of agents, accountability collapses: which agent did what, when, and why? "I told it to be careful" is not an answer you can prove — to a customer, an auditor, or yourself.

What's missing is a boundary that lives outside the agent — one a bug, an attack, or the agent itself can never get past. A frame you set once, a human gate on what's sensitive, and a ledger that never forgets. That is Almega.

II.Autonomy, with a kill switch
1

Connect

Drop in the Almega MCP server or SDK. One line of code, any framework.

2

Set the frame

Which actions run free, which need you, which never. "Read freely; ask before deploy."

3

Approve

Anything sensitive pauses for your one-click sign-off.

4

Audit

Every action — allowed, held, blocked — recorded per agent. Forever.

III.A note for builders

Almega is MCP-native and open source. Drop it into any agent, on any rail — no payments expertise, and no vendor lock-in.

→ Open source on GitHub: almega-ai/almega-mcp

# set the frame once — the agent can't change it
set_frame("ops-bot",
    allow=["read", "search"],
    require_approval=["deploy", "file.delete", "payment"],
    block=["shell.exec"],
)

# the agent asks before anything sensitive
request("ops-bot", "deploy", "deploy #418 to prod")
# → held for your one-click approval · logged
IV.Instructing the agent vs. an immutable frame

"Just tell it the rules"

A wish
  • The model obeys — until it's task-motivated not to
  • A prompt injection overrides your instructions
  • A loop bug ignores them entirely
  • No proof of what it actually did
  • You're betting judgment on irreversible actions

An Almega frame

A wall
  • Boundaries enforced outside the agent
  • Injection can't pass what the agent can't see
  • A bug can't spend or delete past the limit
  • A full audit ledger of every action
  • Sensitive actions wait for your one-click OK
