IDENTITY SEPARATION
Requester & Agent Separation
The identity requesting work and the identity performing agent work remain distinct control subjects.
AGENTGATE
Governed Access & Execution for AI Agents
A standalone self-hosted governance product for controlling agent identity, authority, policy, approvals and access to enterprise resources.
IDENTITY & AUTHORITYPOLICY & APPROVALSGOVERNED EXECUTIONSELF-HOSTED
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Agent governance built around explicit authority
AgentGate controls how AI agents receive identity, scope, authority, approvals and access to enterprise resources. Security decisions remain server-authoritative so browser or agent-provided state cannot silently expand execution permission.
SCOPED AUTHORITY
Scoped Authority
Tenant, project, workstream, resource, environment and capability context can be bound before governed execution is admitted.
POLICY & APPROVAL
Authorization is resolved independently from authentication
AgentGate treats authentication, authorization and approval as separate boundaries. Policy is enforced server-side and sensitive actions can require approvals that remain bound to the exact governed execution context.
DEFAULT DENY
Deny-by-Default Orientation
Capabilities are not treated as implicitly available. Missing or inconsistent authority is a reason to deny rather than broaden scope.
APPROVAL GATES
Controlled Approvals
Approval state is resolved as part of governed execution and revalidated before consequential actions proceed.
RESOURCE BINDING
Resource & Environment Binding
Execution can remain bound to the intended enterprise resource and environment instead of relying only on high-level user intent.
SERVER-SIDE DECISIONS
Server-Authoritative Decisions
Security authority is derived on the server rather than trusted from browser presentation state or agent-supplied claims.
GOVERNED EXECUTION
Prepare, authorize, dispatch, verify and retain evidence
AgentGate is designed around a governed execution lifecycle rather than direct connector access. Execution completion and verification remain separate so a successful underlying process does not automatically become a verified outcome.
PREPARED DISPATCH
Prepared Execution
Execution context is resolved before dispatch, including current authority, policy and applicable commercial state.
REVALIDATION
Dispatch Revalidation
Relevant authority and entitlement conditions can be revalidated immediately before governed dispatch.
INDEPENDENT CHECK
Independent Verification
Verification can evaluate actual post-execution evidence independently from the process that performed the action.
AUDIT TRAIL
Audit & Evidence
Important administrative and execution transitions retain an evidence-oriented operational trail.
RESEARCH FOUNDATION
Agent governance informed by applied research
AgentGate is informed by CAUSVEN research and engineering in agent identity, authority boundaries, scoped execution, approval binding and runtime governance.
Experimental Research components are not AgentGate runtime dependencies.

Standalone remains standalone
Research informs architecture and evaluation without creating a SAFEDEV or Research runtime dependency for AgentGate.
EVIDENCE OWNERSHIP
Product evidence remains authoritative
Active implementation work is not treated as complete until the AgentGate workstream independently closes its evidence boundary.
ENTERPRISE ADMINISTRATION
First-run, RBAC and operational readiness under server authority
Verified administration capabilities include server-authoritative first-run, distinct owner, approver and agent identities, RBAC, credential lifecycle, policies, connectors, readiness and restart-safe state reconstruction.
ROLE SEPARATION
Separation of Duties
Owner/admin, approver and agent identities can remain distinct so approval and execution responsibilities do not collapse into one actor.
CREDENTIAL LIFECYCLE
Credential Lifecycle
Credential issuance, rotation and revocation are treated as controlled administrative operations.
READINESS CONTROLS
Operational Readiness
First-run progress and readiness are derived from durable server-side state rather than browser-only setup state.
STATE CONTINUITY
Restart-Safe State
Governance state is designed to survive process restart without reconstructing authority from transient client state.
COMMERCIAL CONTROLS
Verified licensing controls for self-hosted deployment
AgentGate includes verified signed offline licensing, installation binding, durable license state, entitlement enforcement, restricted-mode operation and license revalidation across governed execution boundaries.
SIGNED LICENSING
Signed Offline Licensing
Commercial licensing can be verified locally without requiring an online activation dependency.
INSTALLATION IDENTITY
Installation Binding
Commercial entitlement can be bound to the intended installation boundary.
ENTITLEMENT POLICY
Entitlement Enforcement
Commercial product limits are enforced independently from agent security authority.
RESTRICTED ACCESS
Restricted Mode
Invalid or unavailable entitlement state can restrict new governed operations while preserving controlled administrative and evidence access.
STANDALONE BY DESIGN
Independent deployment and operation
AgentGate is designed to install, run, operate and upgrade independently as a standalone CAUSVEN product. Commercial entitlement does not grant execution authority: agent identity, permissions, policy, scope and approval boundaries remain independently enforced.
SELF-HOSTED
Self-Hosted Orientation
AgentGate is designed for customer-controlled deployment environments with local governance and operational state.
CONTROLLED RELEASE
Release Preparation
The product remains in pre-release commercial preparation while recovery, upgrade, package reseal and final commercial certification stages continue.
