Policies
PlatformCreate guardrails to govern agent behavior.
Policies are declarative rules that monitor and flag agent behavior. Get alerted when agents exceed limits or exhibit unexpected patterns.
Policy Types
Spend Cap
Alert when an agent exceeds a cost threshold
Retry Protection
Flag excessive retry loops
Duration Limit
Alert on long-running executions
Token Limit
Flag high token usage
Error Rate
Alert when error rate exceeds threshold
Tip
Start with a Spend Cap policy to prevent runaway costs from unexpected agent behavior.
Policies vs Governance Hub
Policies are automated ingest-time rules and violations. Human review queues, AI system registry, incidents, and compliance evidence exports live in the Governance Hub.
Creating Policies
- Go to Policies in the app (Govern section)
- Click Create Policy (or go to Policies → create)
- Select the policy type
- Configure thresholds and scope (e.g. by agent)
- Save; violations will appear on the dashboard and in Policies
