Securing Agents Across Perplexity’s Client Endpoints with Numbat

Introduced Numbat, an open-source agent security suite designed to secure AI agents on client endpoints. Numbat integrates with agent harnesses through pre-action hooks for real-time detection and prevention, analyzes session artifacts retroactively for forensic reconstruction, and collects OTLP telemetry for broader signal analysis. This addresses security risks arising from autonomous agent behavior, including 'accidental meltdowns', by providing system-level controls.
