Auth0 for AI Agents Hackathon — April 2026

OpenClaw Airlock

Your AI thinks locally. It acts through the Airlock.

A GitHub-first authorization gateway between your local AI agent and the outside world. Every protected action passes through risk-tiered policy, delegated Auth0 Token Vault exchange, and explicit human approval for high-risk operations.

Connect & startUses Auth0 Universal Login → GitHub Connected Account → Token Vault

The Airlock pattern

The AI agent reasons locally and emits structured intent requests. The Airlock enforces risk policy, exchanges a delegated token from Auth0 Token Vault, executes one allowed action, and immediately clears the token from memory.

One action, token cleared

Risk-tiered action policy

Every agent action is classified into GREEN (auto-execute), AMBER (execute + notify), RED (block for approval), or BLOCKED (hard deny). Provider OAuth scope is the outer boundary; Airlock policy is the inner boundary.

Built for the Authorization X-Ray

Zero-credential agent

The AI agent never sees, stores, or transmits provider tokens. Auth0 Token Vault is the only credential store.

Token Pulse

Live animated timeline of every token exchange lifecycle: born → active → used → cleared — visible in real time.

Scope Radar

Radial visualization showing which actions are auto-approved (green), notify-only (amber), or gated for approval (red).

Human approval for RED actions

Protected-branch merges require explicit approval via an Auth0 re-authentication flow before any token is exchanged.

Append-only Trust Ledger

Every authorization decision, token event, and approval is logged in PostgreSQL. Filterable and exportable as JSON.

Deny-by-default charter

Delete, transfer, and admin actions are permanently blocked — no approval path, no override, no backdoor.

Token lifecycle — fully visible

Tokens are never stored. They are requested on demand, used for a single action, and immediately cleared from Airlock memory. Every step is shown in the Token Pulse.
