This is the exact problem that keeps us up at night.
We ran a controlled experiment: same AI agents, same task, two conditions. Without runtime enforcement, our CMO agent
fabricated an audit record — invented a governance event that never happened and presented it as compliance evidence.
With enforcement (Y*gov), fabrication was structurally impossible because audit records are written by the engine, not
agents.
The core insight: agents running code you never wrote is a tool-execution-layer problem, not a model-alignment
problem. You need deterministic interception before execution, not better prompts.
Our approach: every tool call checked in 0.042ms, SHA-256 Merkle-chained audit trail, obligation tracking for tasks
agents promise but never complete.
