Problem
Agent access is often configured through hand-edited files and long-lived credentials, making scope, review, revocation, and operator understanding harder than they should be.
Case study · Public macOS preview
Make agent access scoped, reviewable, and revocable without exposing private credentials.
Anthony actively builds and tests a public macOS preview of a local-first access-governance layer. The public surface demonstrates product direction and workflow; it does not claim customer adoption, security certification, production scale, or general availability.

Approach
- 01
Choose the agent or connector that needs access.
- 02
Define a scoped policy instead of exposing the underlying credential.
- 03
Require operator review before access is granted.
- 04
Record the decision and retain a clear revocation path.
Controls and working practices
- Local-first credential handling
- Scoped policy rather than raw-key distribution
- Human review and approval
- Revocation and audit-oriented records

Evidence and current status
The Agent Master Key website shows the current macOS preview and intended access workflow. It is a first-party product preview, not independent validation of adoption or security.
Public preview; actively built and tested. No customer, certification, adoption, or production-scale claim is made.
