GitHub Copilot Workspace agent controls
Workspace-style autonomy should not merge or deploy without policy — practical gating for eng leads.
Workspace-style autonomy should not merge or deploy without policy — practical gating for eng leads. If you found this via copilot, you likely need software this week — not another strategy deck. Sanctum Runtime combines an MIT SDK with a hosted console for execution-time approve, verify, and block.
Key takeaways
- Discovery channel: copilot — intent is deploy or compare, not casual reading.
- Runtime trust gates side effects before they run; guardrails alone miss tool calls.
- First 100 teams typically gate email, payments, or prod writes in week one.
Implementation checklist
- Console → Agents → register agent → copy SDK snippet.
- Shield Rules → Verify on highest-risk action for your stack.
- Run one held action → approve on Overview or mobile PWA.
- Compliance → export audit sample for security or investor review.

Where should I start if this article matches my search?
Open console.sanctumruntime.com, connect one agent with @sanctum-runtime/sdk, and gate one real action today. No sales call required for the first approval workflow.
Does Sanctum replace my model provider or gateway?
No. Sanctum sits at the action boundary — approve, verify, or block tool side effects — alongside OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, or gateway vendors.
How does this help us reach production safely?
You get policy versioning, human review queues, fleet pause, and audit exports — the artifacts security, finance, and insurance reviewers ask for when agents act autonomously.
