Benefits with Ory + Continue Integration

Ory integrates with Continue to provide security guardrails for developers building and running AI agents. Ory's harness hook executes identity and credential checks for every session and tool call, enforcing fine-grained authorization to permit or deny actions while logging all activity for complete audit trails. Teams can utilize Observe mode to monitor tool usage or Enforce mode to strictly restrict agents to authorized permissions.

The fastest way to get started with Ory Agent Security is to sign up for the Ory Network. Installing an Ory Agent Security plugin for your AI coding agent takes seconds. You simply copy and paste the provided command in the harness's project directory.
