Limits & Budgets.
Before every call, the control layer checks budget, steps, and tool access. No runaway agents.
- Hard caps on tokens, time, memory
- Per-tool budget allocation
- Configurable thresholds (warn/stop)
Autonomous agents without constraints will drain your budget, overwrite shared state, and loop forever. Splinter is the framework-agnostic enforcement layer that makes single & multi-agent systems actually work.
Works with everything you already use
Framework-agnostic control layer. Wrap any agent system.
Splinter acts as the enforcement layer between your business logic and autonomous agents, adding hard limits and safety controls.
Before every call, the control layer checks budget, steps, and tool access. No runaway agents.
Define which tools each agent can use. Custom rules to gate dangerous operations. Rate limits per agent per tool.
Global safety triggers that halt the entire swarm. Loop detection, decision enforcement, and emergency stop capabilities built in.
Every action is snapshotted. Roll back to any safe checkpoint. Resume from any point without restarting.
Configurable retry behavior per tool. Basic retries for transient failures, fail-closed for destructive operations that should never retry.
Write programmable enforcement logic beyond simple allow/deny. Custom validators, conditional permissions, context-aware rules. Full control over agent behavior.
Multi-agent chaos becomes coordinated workflows. Splinter adds shared state, validated handoffs, and explicit signals so agents work together instead of colliding.
Every piece of state has a designated owner. Splinter tracks who wrote what and prevents unauthorized overwrites.
State is checkpointed at every step. Resume from the last checkpoint instead of rerunning everything. Sequential order is enforced.
Resume interrupted workflows at any checkpoint.
Handoff payloads are validated against a declared schema. If validation fails, the handoff is rejected and the upstream agent is notified.
Only the eligible agent can act at any moment. Splinter defines which agent is allowed to act, preventing simultaneous conflicting actions.
Every agent has global awareness of all other agents.
Steps must declare when done. Agents must declare waiting reasons. These are enforced requirements, not optional hints.
Goals are shared across all agents. Every agent sees the global goal. This is enforced at runtime, not optional validation.
Change rules, budgets, behavior, permissions, break loops, surface deadlocks while agents run live before issues occur
Modify budgets, limits, rate limits, tool access, retry strategies, and behavioral modes while agents run. Break loops manually. Switch agents from plan-only to execute mode. Roll back actions. Changes apply instantly without redeployment.
See which agents are active, waiting, blocked, or eligible at any moment. Surface exactly why each agent is in that state. Detect bottlenecks and deadlocks before they cascade.
Stop agents immediately. Trigger global circuit breakers. No redeploy required.
See every agent, shared state, ownership, checkpoints, and handoffs in real time. WebSocket-powered updates with no polling delays. Complete execution history and audit trail.
The Control and Coordination layers are free and open source forever. Splinter Cloud adds live control: change rules, break loops, and intervene in real time without redeploying.
Full control & coordination. Free forever.
Works with: LangGraph, LangChain, CrewAI, custom runtimes & any agent framework
Live dashboard, real-time control, coordination intelligence.
Install the open source core in seconds. Get budgets, limits, loop detection, circuit breakers, shared state, and coordinated handoffs — without writing a single line of control logic yourself.
