MCP adoption is accelerating. Every tool call is an action an AI agent takes on the world. Governance is the missing layer.
PolicyLayer Intercept is the open-source standard for MCP policy enforcement. Let's build it together.
Thousands of MCP servers expose powerful capabilities to AI agents: databases, cloud infrastructure, payment rails, code repositories. All callable. None governed by default.
Teams adopting MCP need a way to define what agents are allowed to do before execution happens. Not prompts. Not permissions. Deterministic policy.
Intercept provides that layer. One YAML file per server. Every tool call checked. Open source under Apache 2.0.
Ship recommended policies alongside your server. We write the YAML, you bundle it. Your users get governance out of the box.
Native policy enforcement for your MCP connections. We provide the engine. Your users get deterministic limits on every tool call without leaving your environment.
Governance middleware for your tool dispatcher. Works with zero code changes. Policy enforcement sits between the framework and the MCP transport.
MCP configuration scanning and policy compliance in CI/CD. SARIF output for your dashboard. Bring MCP governance into existing security workflows.
Intercept works with every major MCP client today. One line in the config file. No agent modifications.
Whether you maintain an MCP server, build an AI platform, or ship security tooling — we'd like to hear from you.
