Burrow adds runtime security layer for AI agents like Claude Code and Cursor by intercepting risky tool calls before execution
Hacker News · April 14, 2026
AI Summary
- •Burrow intercepts tool calls from AI agents at the framework level, preventing unauthorized actions like credential theft or production resource deletion
- •Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, CrewAI, LangChain, and LangGraph with CLI and SDK installation under one minute
- •Uses plain language policies to define security rules, such as blocking credential exfiltration or alerting when agents read AWS credentials and send data externally
- •Addresses the blind spot where traditional EDR and cloud audit logs miss coordinated malicious agent behavior chains that individual actions wouldn't flag
