CoworkGuard — Runtime Visibility for AI Tools
The missing layer
Invisible behaviour, made visible.
Most tools give you logs. CoworkGuard gives you the sequence: what touched private data, what connected outward, and why it matters.

Review recommended. CoworkGuard saw sensitive local access followed by outbound activity. Strong actor tracking can turn this from a possible sequence into a confirmed one.
Runtime activity
Real-time visibility without the noise.
A calm local dashboard for AI sessions, sensitive events, blocked responses, and behavioural timelines.

Sensitive access See when tools touch credentials, private files, or AI configs.
Outbound flow Understand which endpoint was contacted and when.
Actor tracking Link activity back to the same app, process, extension, or session.
What it watches
Built for the new local AI surface.
AI security is no longer just cloud-side. It is happening inside browsers, IDEs, terminals, extensions, and local agent workflows.
AI Apps<br>Monitor desktop assistants, coding agents, local runtimes, and AI-powered IDEs.
Browser Tools<br>Track AI sessions, prompt APIs, risky domains, and extension behaviour.
MCP & Tools<br>Inspect tool responses before they reach the model context.
Sensitive Activity<br>Flag credentials, tokens, secret files, hidden instructions, and outbound payloads.
Privacy
Your data stays on your machine.
CoworkGuard is designed as a local visibility layer. It does not need an account, cloud pipeline, or telemetry stream to protect you.
✓No cloud dependency
✓No account required
✓No telemetry or analytics
✓No raw prompt storage
✓Open source and auditable

The shift
Trusted tooling is becoming the new attack surface.
AI assistants, extensions, MCP tools, and developer agents now operate with broad access to local machines. CoworkGuard adds runtime visibility to that new layer of computing.
VS Code extensions file + token access
AI coding agents workspace + shell
MCP tools tool output injection
Browser AI features tab + prompt activity
Local scripts process + network
