Stopping the Meta AI director's "OpenClaw failure with an out-of-band killswitch

The Meta director's Openclaw incident was caused by context compaction deleting core instructions, but the root cause is having in-band agent control. We develop an out-of-band agent kill switch integrated into our open-source agent identity platform ZeroID.

https://github.com/highflame-ai/zeroid (see examples directory for Openclaw integration).

can this automatically detect and kill anomalous agents?
jalbrethsen•1h ago
The identity platform does not detect anomolies on its own, it is intended to integrate with guardrails and ingest security signals. We offer a hosted platform that does it all, you can try for free here https://studio.highflame.ai/sign-up
