The Actenon Kernel, Permit, and Cloud products require a cryptographic proof bound to each action before execution, leaving a verifiable audit trail. The project aims to prevent destructive AI-agent behavior by enforcing human-in-the-loop approvals and runtime limits.", "body_md": "# Actenon\n\n## Popular repositories Loading\n\n-\n[actenon-kernel](/Actenon/actenon-kernel)actenon-kernel PublicStop AI agents from taking destructive actions they weren't authorized to.
