Solutions · AI Harness & Governance
An AI agent harness gives a model tools, memory, permissions, and a safe agent runtime. Chiri adds governance and security by design.
01 · The problem
Most teams build the AI first. They add governance after a buyer demands it. This process creates a separate policy layer. The original system cannot support governance by design.
Ungoverned agents that can act in the world are a liability, not an asset. Regulated and mid-market buyers cannot accept a policy applied after the fact.
For years, AI governance meant a binder of principles and ethics statements that nobody could test. Regulators, and reality, now ask what you can prove, not what you promised. They want to know what the system did, when it happened, and who approved it.
02 · The harness concept
A model reasons, and that is all it does. A model needs a body to turn reasoning into work. The body holds tools and memory. It runs actions safely. It also controls permitted actions. That body is the harness.
Agent equals model plus harness. Reliability, safety, and control are won in the harness. That is why governance and security can be part of the foundation, instead of a layer added later.
03 · The governance foundation
These controls are essential and available from the start. Applications inherit them by design. We describe them plainly because they already support production systems.
The evidence chain
Governance becomes real the moment it produces evidence. Every important step, a data access, a tool call, a human approval, becomes a link you can inspect later. It works like a chain of custody in law and accounting. That is what "auditable" means in practice. It is not a story about why the model chose an output. It is a record of what happened, when it happened, and who approved it.
04 · Chiri Glacier
Glacier is real-time infrastructure security. It works at the infrastructure level. It checks each proposed action before execution. Glacier stops a dangerous action before it runs. It does not flag the action after execution.
A dangerous action can move data outside an authorized boundary. It can also damage a system of record. A tool call can also exceed application policy. Glacier sits below the application layer. It catches these actions from any agent, model, or workflow. The application does not need to predict the risk.
Glacier stops bad actions instead of only logging them. Detection after execution shows past events. Glacier stops the action before execution. The record shows prevented actions and completed cleanup.
05 · The runtime Clamp
The runtime Clamp inspects AI input and output during operation. It stops one compromised path without stopping the full system. The Clamp contains that path while other paths continue.
The Clamp compares system actions with the EU AI Act and other compliance requirements. The EU AI Act is the first binding law in this area. This comparison shows whether system actions match legal requirements. It supports your compliance work. It does not provide certified legal compliance or legal advice.
06 · The impact
You deploy AI with provable governance. Applications inherit authorization, audit, and isolation by construction. Teams deliver faster with a defensible foundation. The system creates the record by design. You can answer questions from regulators, auditors, and boards.
The foundation exists so people can trust the systems they run. They can focus on higher-value work, instead of policing an ungoverned tool.
More companies improve shared security and hardening. You receive those improvements. Chiri isolates your proprietary data, processes, and advantage. Chiri never pools or shares them. Chiri builds your AI Harness & Governance solution. You own it. Your solution improves over time.
