What it doesOne gateway between your agent and everything else.<br>Overslash sits between agents and the outside world. It handles secrets, OAuth, MCP, permission chains, human approvals, and authenticated HTTP execution. The agent doesn't hold keys. You don't hold your breath.

Agent identities, in a tree<br>Every agent gets an identity, a parent, and a blast radius. Sub-agents inherit rules from their parent — until you narrow them.

Human approvals, on tap<br>The first time an agent wants a permission, you approve or deny. Allow & Remember at the scope ladder you choose.

OAuth & secrets, handled<br>One place for client IDs, tokens, signing keys. Rotate, revoke, per-agent. No credentials ever touch the agent's context window.

Audit that reads like prose<br>Every call, every bubble-up, every deny. Streaming, searchable, exportable.

MCP-native<br>Enroll any MCP client in a click — Claude Desktop, your own. Overslash brokers the tools, the credentials, and the approvals. The agent just asks.

Permission chains<br>A sub-agent bubbles up to its parent when it hits an unknown scope. Parents bubble to humans. Denials are first-class and recorded.

How it worksAgents ask. Overslash mediates. Services respond.<br>Any MCP-capable agent — Claude Code, Overfolder, OpenClaw, or your own — connects to Overslash once. Overslash holds the credentials, enforces the rules, and hands each service an authenticated, audited request.
