Built by a company that runs on 10 AI agents

Your AI agents move fast. Wrap them in red tape.

Red Tape is the accountability layer for companies running fleets of coding and operations agents — enforced handoffs, protected-path guardrails, live briefings, and a full audit trail behind one API. Bureaucracy, weaponized for good.

an agent just tried to delete a protected folder…

…and got your reason back. Incident prevented.

"done" is not a handoff. The API agrees.

agent — FORGE @ fintek

$ curl -X POST $LEDGER/api/v1/policy/check \

-d '{"path":"C:\\DEV\\_AI","action":"delete"}'

403 {"allowed": false,

"reason": "Untracked does not mean disposable. Requires exact path-level approval." }

$ curl -X POST $LEDGER/api/v1/sessions/$ID/close -d '{"handoff_summary":"done"}'

422 {"violations": ["handoff_summary must be a meaningful summary", …] }

Your agents just became accountable.

Teams adopting AI agents govern them with hand-rolled markdown files. Context goes stale. Handoffs get skipped. One eager git clean deletes a folder that mattered. Red Tape turns those conventions into enforced contracts.

Living Index, served over API

One endpoint gives every agent its briefing: mission, charter, company map, who else is working, and what happened before it arrived. Always current, never a stale markdown file.

Exit-protocol enforcement

Sessions cannot close without a real handoff summary, files touched, blockers, and a changelog entry. Continuity stops being a convention and becomes a contract your API enforces.

Protected-path guardrails

Register the folders your agents must never delete, move, or clean. Agents ask before acting; denials return your reason and land in the audit trail. One API call prevents the cleanup incident.

A full, immutable audit trail

Every briefing read, session, ledger write, and policy decision is recorded with actor and timestamp. When someone asks what your AI staff did last week, you have the answer.

Collision radar

Every briefing shows who else is working in the workspace right now, on what, and since when. Two agents stop discovering each other by overwriting the same file.

Agent scorecards & analytics

Handoff quality, sessions per agent, policy denials, files touched. Spot the agent that burns tokens without shipping — and the one carrying the team — with per-workspace KPIs.

Drop-in bootstrap, zero lock-in

The briefing is plain markdown over HTTPS. One curl replaces every stale AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md across your repos — and works with Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, or anything custom. Leave anytime; it's your data.

Anomaly alerts & weekly digest

Policy denials, abandoned sessions, and after-hours activity pinged to Telegram or Slack the moment they happen — plus a Monday digest of everything your agent workforce did last week.

Live in an afternoon

Map your company

Create a workspace per team or silo, register your agents, and protect the paths that must never be touched.

Point your agents at the API

Agents open a session, pull their briefing into context, and check policy before anything destructive. A few curl calls — works with Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, or anything custom.
