Securely Scale Agentic AI

Execution-time authorization for AI agents. Control what agents can do, eliminate ambient authority, and prove every action.

CRITTORA

THE MISSING CONTROL BETWEEN AI AGENTS AND REAL SYSTEMS

Most agent stacks leave agents with ambient authority once tools and credentials are connected. Crittora adds execution-time authorization, controlling exactly what an agent is allowed to do at the moment of action and proving what happened after the action is taken.
Scope Permissions

Scope Permissions

Grant only the permissions required for a specific action.

Control Tool Access

Control Tool Access

Limit which tools an agent can touch at runtime.

Audit Every Action

Audit Every Action

Record what happened, who requested it, and when.

What is ambient authority?

Why Autonomy Stalls

Control Breaks At Execution

Agent systems fail when tool access is implicit and runtime authority is not enforced at the moment of action.

"Most agent security claims sound strong until you ask a simple question: what actually controls the action when the agent touches a real tool? If the answer is vague, the system is not ready for production."

How Crittora Agent Authority Broker Governs Execution

Crittora Agent Authority Broker MCP brings Crittora's authority model to any MCP-compatible stack in minutes, without changing the control model underneath it.

FAST INSTALL. HARD STOP AT EXECUTION.

Deploy Crittora Agent Authority Broker MCP in minutes, then require every state-changing tool call to pass a mandatory runtime checkpoint before anything can commit.

FAST INSTALL. HARD STOP AT EXECUTION.
EXACT AUTHORITY FOR EACH STEP
EXACT AUTHORITY FOR EACH STEP

Agents never hold broad or long-lived access. Authority is granted just in time for a specific action, tool, and execution step.

INTEGRITY AT THE TOOL BOUNDARY

Requests, responses, and execution context stay protected as they move across orchestrators, MCP tools, and downstream services so approved actions stay intact.

INTEGRITY AT THE TOOL BOUNDARY
PROOF AFTER EVERY ACTION
PROOF AFTER EVERY ACTION

Each approved step emits a signed, portable record tying identity, intent, policy, and request data together for audit, forensics, and review.

Agent Permission Protocol

The Protocol Behind Crittora Agent Authority Broker

APP is the policy and permission protocol behind Crittora Agent Authority Broker. It binds each agent action to signed, time-bound scope before tools are exposed.

It gives Crittora Agent Authority Broker its authority model: scoped permissions, runtime enforcement, and signed proof for every action.

Agent Authority Readiness Evaluation

Evaluate Your Agent
Before It Touches Production

We review how your agent stack handles tool access, authority boundaries, and runtime proof so you can see exactly where control breaks and how to close the gap.

What We Test

  • State-changing tool calls (APIs, admin actions, automation triggers)

  • Authority boundaries (scope, expiry, audience binding)

  • Failure modes (replay, tampering, confused deputy, over-broad tokens)

What You Get

  • Signed Proof-of-Action receipts for allow/deny

  • A policy map of tool access by agent/workflow

  • A short risk summary (blast radius + recommended constraints)

AI agents are moving closer to real decisions and real tool execution. The risk surface is growing with them.

MCP Development Architecture

FOR DEVELOPERS & AGENT ARCHITECTS

DEPLOY CRITTORA AGENT AUTHORITY BROKER MCP IN MINUTES

Crittora Agent Authority Broker MCP is a direct way to add runtime authority control to any MCP-compatible agent stack.

Use it to control what agents can do, which tools they can touch, and what proof is recorded for every allow or deny decision.

Read the APP whitepaper

Crittora Agent Authority Broker can be deployed as gateway middleware, runtime tool wrappers, or as Crittora Agent Authority Broker MCP. Each model enforces scoped authority before execution and emits signed proof for every decision.

Deploy Crittora in front of state-changing APIs and automations. Before a request reaches a system of record, Crittora verifies integrity and evaluates the action against explicit scope and expiry. Out-of-scope, expired, replayed, or tampered requests fail closed.

Wrap tool calls inside LangGraph, LangChain, or custom runtimes so the agent only receives a restricted tool surface for each step. Tools are exposed only when authorized, and the wrapper emits receipts inline with workflow execution.

Add Crittora Agent Authority Broker MCP to any MCP-compatible runtime to enforce scoped tool access, fail-closed authorization, and signed audit receipts without model lock-in. This is the fastest path to bringing Crittora's authority model into a running agent stack.

FOR AGENT BUILDERS

Questions Teams Should Ask Before Agents Reach Production

Clear answers on scoped authority, approvals, MCP integrations, and audit proof.

Ambient authority means access exists by default instead of being granted for a specific action. In agent systems, this happens when a model can reach mounted tools, broad OAuth tokens, API keys, or privileged integrations without a fresh execution-time authorization decision. Crittora eliminates ambient authority by exposing only the capabilities allowed by a verified, time-bounded policy.


Execution-time authorization is the control point between agent intent and real system change. Instead of approving broad access at login, planning, or setup, the execution layer checks the action, tool, scope, audience, expiry, and policy proof immediately before the tool call or API operation can commit. If authorization is missing, expired, ambiguous, or out of scope, execution fails closed.


Authentication and identity are necessary, but they do not limit action by themselves. A valid agent identity or OAuth token can still carry broad authority across many tools. AI agent security needs execution-time authorization so every tool call is scoped to the current task, time window, and permitted capability. Identity answers who. Execution-time authorization answers what can happen now.


Crittora Agent Authority Broker sits between agents and tools, APIs, or systems of record. Before an agent can use a sensitive capability, Crittora verifies the policy, validates scope and expiry, blocks unauthorized calls, and emits proof of what was allowed or denied. That makes Crittora the execution-time authorization layer for AI agents.
