Recursant, "Istio for agents", is now open source
Istio for agents is a bold bet, but the agent economy isn't mature enough yet.
Recursant observes and governs agents across clouds and stacks

I have built Recursant, an AI agent governance platform that governs agents across stacks and clouds to maintain compliance. In many large enterprises this is a real compliance issue with different teams using different frameworks and runtime environments, which creates control risk.
I hope to get some feedback on it. It is a viable alternative to the large vendor controlled stacks. Architecturally it is quite unique given its use of the Istio / sidecar pattern. This enables agent isolation at the network layer.
Thanks Anders

Istio for AI agents with real-time EU AI Act compliance built in.
Firecracker microVMs isolate coding agents so you can review before merging.
Docker sandboxing for agents when most runners just trust whatever the LLM outputs.
Agents install their own sandbox via Docker, solving the dependency hell problem.
Replaying past sessions against stricter policies beats guessing rules before you know the risks.
