Architecture

MCP server · isolated tool calls · limits and operator context · Kali lab integration. Control plane separated from raw shell — the agent gets a contract, not root.

Problem

AI agents wired to unconstrained tools create operational noise and risk — weak auditability, weak repeatability, weak safety.

Solution

A disciplined MCP bridge: tools exposed through schema, status, and operator discipline. HexStrike as a layer — not a magic button.

Lessons learned

Autonomy without a contract is technical debt with an AI face.
Observability of tool calls beats the number of integrations.
Lab trust and identity-product trust must stay separated.
