Molten

A governed runtime for autonomous agents. Fails closed by default — under a policy violation, a cost spike, or an operator going dark, Molten halts the agent instead of letting it drift.

How it enforces trust

Every control below is a hard gate, not a warning. Agents run at the lowest privilege that does the job, and the runtime is willing to stop them.

Kill switch with automatic cost and error triggers — no manual intervention required for a runaway agent.
Circuit breakers on repeated failures; noisy loops don't get to keep spending.
Four-tier execution sandbox — READONLY up to ADMIN. Agents run at the lowest tier that does the job.
Secret scanner with automatic redaction before anything is logged or persisted — logs never carry raw secrets.
Dead-man's switch: if the operator stops checking in, the runtime halts.

Budget ceilings

Cost is a first-class policy input, not an afterthought. Hard alerts fire at conservative defaults.

$20/day default ceiling per runtime.
$5/task default ceiling per agent invocation.

Why privateMolten is a private build while it hardens toward release. No repo, no demo, no promised dates — a runtime that grants execution privileges to autonomous agents earns its public surface after the controls have been beaten on, not before.
