An AI working on its own will eventually be about to do something it should not. The cheap fix is one small yes/no question right before it acts. Hermes did this by accident on Sept 11; here is how to do it on purpose.An agent is an AI in a loop, and every lap can end in an action. Put a narrow guardrail question to a decision model before each write, on each reply and at each hand-off, and let a threshold decide act, confirm or escalate. Hermes's Sept 11 stop is the informal version.Guardrails as Noul questions over the pending tool call, the completion or the routing decision; per-action thresholds (act / confirm / escalate); a pre-write gate adapted from TypeSafe's guardrails cookbook; the TypeSafe agent skill and the one-file review rule.
