Production AI agents need more than prompts — they need authorization, audit trails, and controlled execution.
SAP — Security Agent Protocol
SAP provides:
- PIN verification and token validation
- Signed key issuance
- Encrypted logging
- CLI-oriented developer workflows
SAAP — Security AI Agent Protocol
SAAP extends SAP with AI-specific monitoring, Supabase-backed logging, agent oversight, and workflow control — the layer you want before agents touch production data or tools.
