Policy Forge: Agentic AI Governance

Policy Forge (Forge) is an open-source framework for the "Agent-Native" era. It provides the Contextual Governance and machine-readable logic required for AI agents to operate autonomously and safely.

Key Pillars for Agentic AI

Machine Readability: Uses structured schemas (JSON/YAML) to eliminate "context drift" and reduce token waste for LLMs.

Guardrailed Autonomy: Defines strict "Policy-as-Code" boundaries, ensuring agents stay within operational limits.

Shared Truth Layer: Provides a consistent set of machine-readable constraints for multi-agent orchestration.

Deterministic Logic: Replaces "black box" guessing with auditable, traceable logic trees.

Security & Enforcement

Forge bridges the gap between human policy and execution. It translates governance into machine-enforceable rules compatible with OPA and CI/CD scanners, allowing for automated "intent" validation.
