Core Functionality
— 04 capabilitiesRead, write, admin, or no access
Ory Agent Security classifies every tool on the Ory MCP server as read, write, or admin, so you can give each user, team, or agent type only the level it needs: read for support and audit agents, write for provisioning agents that onboard users, admin for the few agents your identity team owns, and no access for agents with no identity responsibilities.
Enforced before execution
Ory Agent Security checks each tool call against the user, the agent acting for them, and any sub-agent inside the agent harness, so a denied identity deletion stops before it reaches your Ory Network project, with nothing to roll back and no gateway to deploy.
Observe, then enforce
Observe mode shows which agents try to create, change, or delete identities and on whose behalf without blocking anything, so you can apply Ory's pre-built policy for the Ory MCP server and enforce it on your own schedule.
Complete audit trail
Every allow and deny decision on the Ory MCP server streams to your SIEM through OpenTelemetry with the user, agent, and action attached, so you can show who changed an identity or OAuth2 client, through which agent, and when.
