Readme
AI Execution Firewall 🛡️
Prevent AI agents from silently burning $100–$1000+ in API costs before execution.
A real-time AI cost protection layer that blocks runaway, duplicate, and expensive AI requests before they hit your API.
🚨 The Problem
AI agents in production can quickly go out of control:
- 🔁 Runaway loops → hundreds of repeated requests
- 💸 Token bombs → single requests costing $20–$100+
- ⚡ Agent storms → traffic spikes draining budgets in minutes
- 🔂 Duplicate calls → silent cost multiplication
👉 Traditional monitoring tools react AFTER the money is already spent.
🛡️ The Solution
AI Execution Firewall sits between your app and AI APIs and blocks wasteful requests BEFORE execution.
It acts as a pre-execution cost kill switch for AI systems.
💰 Real Impact
| Scenario | Without Firewall | With Firewall | Saved | |----------|-----------------|---------------|-------| | Runaway loop (1h) | $245 lost | $0 blocked | $245 | | Token bomb | $30 charged | $0 blocked | $30 | | Cost spike | $600 burned | $0 blocked | $600 |
⚙️ What It Does
- Blocks runaway loops
- Prevents duplicate requests
- Detects token explosions
- Stops cost spikes in real time
- Enforces budgets per user / agent / workflow
- Logs and explains every decision
🚀 Quick Start
npm install -g ai-execution-firewall
