About HOL Guard
With HOL Guard, coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex and Cursor keep working, but shell commands, secret access, MCP calls and package installs are checked against your policy first, and risky ones wait for your approval. It runs locally on your machine. The local tool is free and open source (Apache-2.0); Guard Cloud is an optional paid add-on for teams. Install with pipx install hol-guard && hol-guard init. Scan is not a safety guarantee. Maker: HOL.
