Overview

This path takes you from a fresh machine to your first decided action: you install the client next to an agent, sign in to the console, write one intent policy and watch it decide.

OpenLatch is the execution control layer for enterprise AI agents. The client runs next to each agent and decides on every covered action before it executes. The platform, at app.openlatch.ai, is where you define each agent’s Autonomy Zone and read the record of what happened.

1. Install the client on a machine where a coding agent runs.
2. Sign in to the console with the method your organization uses.
3. Write your first policy and ratify it in Monitor.
4. Use the agent as usual, then open Anomalies in the console to see what the policy recorded.

Who does what

You are	Start with
A developer with a coding agent	Install the client
An administrator rolling the client out to many machines	Install the client, then the Deploy section
A security or compliance owner who writes policy	Write your first policy, then Intent policies

Before you start

• A macOS, Linux or Windows machine with at least one coding agent the client wires. Control levels lists them, plane by plane.
• An account in an OpenLatch organization at app.openlatch.ai.
