Repo Guards
Repo Guards is the safety and orchestration layer for AI coding agents in multi-repo environments.
Repo Guards provides a safety and orchestration layer for AI coding agents operating in multi-repo environments. When tasks cross boundaries and agents reach out to foreign directories, they can blindly overwrite files or push code to the wrong branch. Repo Guards runs inside the session at the moment of the tool call to detect anomalies, refuse undone actions, and restore missing context. The system includes active guardrails, smart contextual committing scripts, and a central registry to track projects and skill tracks. It is built for Claude Code and uses Python's standard library with no external dependencies besides git, Python 3.9+, and Claude.
