Use Cases

Pick your starting point.

Available capabilities include setup guidance. Maturity badges identify BETA, PRIVATE PREVIEW, and COMING SOON work.

01

Govern your coding assistant

Claude Code, Cursor, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Kiro, Antigravity

No project code changes. Claude Code, Cursor IDE, and Gemini CLI block all tool families before execution. Codex CLI and Cursor CLI block shell only; Kiro CLI blocks direct tool calls, and sub-agent spawns from SDK 1.13.12 -- on any earlier SDK that matcher is never installed, so such a rule silently never fires; a sub-agent’s own calls are blocked only when it runs an agent config carrying our hooks. Kiro IDE neither blocks nor records today, because we ship its hook disabled pending a soak. On Antigravity the adapter fails closed, and the host treats that deny as advisory in headless/always-proceed, so the call may still run.

06

Set up DLP rules for your team

Dashboard rule editor

Block credit cards, AWS keys, and internal project codes from leaving developer machines or LLM gateways. 64 patterns built in across 12 pattern packs, including EU, Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, Indonesia and Malaysia, plus your own regex rules on the SDK and browser surfaces.

Get started
07BETA

Approve risky actions before they run

Approval workflows

Pause sensitive tool calls and require human approval. The SDK raises the approval and holds the call on hosted, self-managed and air-gapped deployments. The approvals queue is not reachable in the dashboard today, so a raised approval cannot be answered from the product UI.

Get started
08COMING SOON

Generate compliance reports

SOC 2-style and HIPAA-style report templates

Configure retention and export audit-trail reports from the dashboard to support your own SOC 2 and HIPAA audits. Control Zero itself is not certified; the product helps your auditors. Planned for Solo and Teams.

Get started
09PRIVATE PREVIEW
