SafeYolo

You sandboxed the agent to protect your machine. Now protect your keys from hallucinated endpoints.A sidecar proxy for Claude Code and other coding agents that prevents credential leaks, blocks typo/homograph endpoints, tames runaway loops, and logs agent HTTP/tool calls.

Built by Threatspotting

THE PROBLEM

Agents move fast. They also make mistakes at machine speed.

  • Hallucinated / typo endpoints (typosquats)

  • Credential leakage to the wrong host

  • Runaway request loops (rate limits, IP bans)

  • No audit trail when something weird happens

Safety net, not a firewall
SafeYolo catches the 80% of failures from hallucinations,
copy-paste mistakes, and basic injection
without pretending to stop a sophisticated attacker.

WHAT IT DOES

Agent egress guardrails, at the network layer.

  • Credential routing: keys only go to approved destinations

  • Typosquat & homograph defense: blocks look-alike domains

  • Rate limiting + circuit breaker: prevents loops and fail-fast on broken upstreams

  • Structured logging: JSONL events + Prometheus metrics

  • Runtime control: switch between warn ↔ block via admin API

HOW IT FITS

Agent / CI Runner → SafeYolo Proxy → Internet
(Optional: run agents with no direct internet access.)
Powered by mitmproxy.
SafeYolo adds security guardrails as native addons, not a new proxy.

DEMOS

Things SafeYolo will demonstrate immediately:

  • Block an API key being sent to an unauthorized host

  • Catch a hallucinated/typo endpoint before secrets leave the machine

  • Stop runaway loops with rate limits and circuit breaking

INSTALL

Docker-first sidecar.
Run it locally or in CI to put rails around agent HTTP/tool calls.

git clone
https://github.com/craigbalding/safeyolo
cd safeyolo
docker compose up -d

WHO IT’S FOR

  • Solo devs using coding agents daily

  • Small teams running agents in CI

  • Security-minded teams who want egress policy + audit before agents touch real systems

HELP / COMMERCIAL

Need help rolling this out safely (policy baselines, CI integration, “agents without internet”, logging + alerting)?[email protected]
