🛡 Termaxa

**Run AI coding agents with confidence.**

Termaxa gates the shell commands an agent runs — previews the blast radius, backs up first, blocks the dangerous ones, and escalates repeat offenders. It's a cooperative windshield, not a sandbox.

[![CI](https://github.com/termaxa/termaxa/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/termaxa/termaxa/actions/workflows/ci.yml) [![Release](https://img.shields.io/github/v/release/termaxa/termaxa?display_name=tag)](https://github.com/termaxa/termaxa/releases) [![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT%2FApache--2.0-blue)](#license)


Your AI agent wants to run `git push --force`, `DROP TABLE users`, `terraform apply`, `rm -rf`. Most of the time it's right. Sometimes it isn't. Today your only options are *supervise every command* (which defeats the point of an agent) or *trust it blindly* (which defeats your Friday).

Termaxa is a third option: a gate the agent's commands pass through. It reads a policy you wrote, shows you what's actually about to happen, backs up what's about to change, and records everything. Built for **Claude Code** and **Cursor** today; works as a standalone CLI anywhere.

  Claude Code --> TERMAXA --> git . postgres . docker . terraform . your shell
                    |
                    +- decide    allow / ask / deny  (your policy)
                    +- preview   commits lost, rows affected, resources destroyed
                    +- insure    automatic backup before destructive ops
                    +- escalate  repeated destructive intent -> auto-deny
                    +- record    every attempt, with an execution report
