What is it about?
AI agents impose great security risks. They normaly act on behalf of the executing user and thus inherit all permissions. When an LLM is attacked with a prompt injection or similar techniques, the agent may start executing malicious actions on the system. AgentBound is a framework to enforce least privilege access to AI agents and MCP servers that allows engineers and users to actively consent to capabilities of the AI agent.

Why is it important?
The current state of the art does not allow for fine graned access control of AI agents. We allow engineers to secure and confine their AI agents to prevent attacks and malicious actions on the host system.
