Ask-before-run control for AI coding agents: pauses risky shell, secret, MCP and install actions locally.

Key features
Detailed overview
HOL Guard runs locally next to Claude Code, Codex and Cursor and stops risky shell commands, secret reads, MCP calls and package installs until you approve them. You keep working with your agent as usual; Guard only steps in when a tool call needs a decision. Local HOL Guard is free and open source (Apache-2.0). Guard Cloud is an optional paid add-on for teams. Install with `pipx install hol-guard && hol-guard init`. Scan is not a safety guarantee. Maker: HOL.
