Run a team of AI agents without them stepping on each other.
Point more than one AI at the same project and they can’t see each other — one quietly overwrites another’s work, and no one can say who’s in charge. Workspace Guard is the neutral layer that decides who’s allowed to act, keeps a record of every move, and hands off cleanly. On your machine, across any AI vendor.
In development — part of the Future Maven trust stack, not yet released.
Two AIs, one workspace
Point more than one agent at the same repository — or an agent and yourself — and none of them can see the others. A background agent commits over the change you were still working on. Two agents grab the same file. Nobody can answer the simplest question: who owns the session right now? Your tools record what happened after the fact. Nothing decides who’s allowed to act before it happens.
The receptionist for AI intent
Picture a shared project room. Your operating system hands out the doors. Version control keeps the history. Workspace Guard is the receptionist and the sign-out board: before an agent acts, it checks in — do you own this session, is this resource free? — and gets a plain yes or no, in its own language. It isn’t a padlock on your files. It’s a record of who may do what, and why.
Owned sessions
Only the holder of the session can write. Everyone else can look, and line up their work behind it.
Claims that expire
Every claim is time-boxed and kept alive by a heartbeat — so a crashed agent never leaves the room locked behind it.
A trail you can read
Every grant and release is written down: the definitive answer to who did what, and when.
What works today — and what’s next
We build proven-first — so here’s the honest line between what’s real today and what’s still ahead.
Working today
- The local guard. A working prototype, run on a real project: an agent with no owned session is stopped from writing, the properly checked-out session goes through, and the whole sequence is kept as an audit trail.
- Git-aware gates. Commits and pushes attempted without holding the session are refused — fail-closed, by default.
On the roadmap
- Coordinating more than files — branches, document sections, database migrations, even GPU memory and model endpoints.
- A full-machine view: every agent, every task, and clean handoffs between them.
- Routing work safely across your local models and the cloud.
In development — the direction we’re building toward, not today’s product.
A neutral layer that answers to you
This isn’t a smarter lock. It’s the same rule that runs through everything we build: you stay in charge. Every agent acts under a session you granted. Nothing happens silently — every grant and release is on the record. And because the layer sits between the AIs instead of inside any one of them, it stays neutral: it works across vendors and answers to you, not to a platform.
Abundance without trust is fragile. So we made trust the default — even for the machines.
Early, and honest about it
In development. Signup coming soon.
The local guard works today; the rest is being built, and it’ll ship the way everything here does — proven first. Email signup is on the way. For now, the free readiness scan is ready to use.
