ShrikeAction governance
Action governance is the security discipline of evaluating what an AI agent is about to do, before it does it: every command, query, file operation, message, and tool call checked against organizational policy, with graduated verdicts and a recorded decision. It governs behavior rather than filtering words.
Content filtering asks "is this text harmful"; action governance asks "should this specific agent take this specific action right now." The distinction matters because agent damage arrives through well-formed, legitimate-looking actions: a valid SQL statement, a correctly addressed email. The full treatment is the pillar page, What is action governance?
