Just shipped: 30% faster policy enforcement, real-time approvals dashboard, and better error messages.
The Problem We Solve
AI agents like Claude are awesome for code generation, but they can:
- 😱 Read your
.envfiles - 💥 Delete entire directories
- 🗂️ Modify sensitive database schemas
Waymark prevents this by sitting between your agent and the MCP tools.
What's New
⚡ Performance
- Policy evaluation: 30% faster
- Dashboard renders: 50% lighter
- New indexed database queries
🎯 Better UX
- Clearer error messages with reasons
- New CLI commands for testing policies
- Real-time action telemetry
🔐 Security Improvements
- Fixed symlink bypass issue
- Transactional approval workflow
- Immutable policy versions
Quick Example
{
"allowedPaths": ["./src/**"],
"blockedPaths": [".env", "secrets/"],
"requireApproval": ["./migrations/**"],
"blockedCommands": ["rm -rf", "DROP TABLE"]
}
→ Now Claude can write code safely while sensitive files stay protected.
The Numbers
| Scenario | Result | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Read allowed file | ALLOW ✅ | Works |
| Read blocked file | BLOCK ❌ | Blocked |
| Write requires approval | PENDING ⏳ | Dashboard review |
| Dangerous command | BLOCK ❌ | Blocked |
| Safe shell command | ALLOW ✅ | Works |
100% policy enforcement across all scenarios.
