How Anomity governs this at runtime
Scan-time vetting tells you what a skill says it will do. Anomity's Endpoint Sensor sees what agents actually do: it discovers skills alongside every other AI artifact on the endpoint, and runtime governance can allow, deny, or log the tool calls a skill triggers. Policy violations route to your SIEM, Slack, email, or Jira, backed by a queryable 90-day audit trail.
