EU AI Act compliance for AI agents: what you need by August 2026
The EU AI Act high-risk deadline is August 2, 2026. Here is what the key articles require and how to map them to your agent infrastructure.
Notes kept while building Authensor. Much of the earlier writing here describes an agent-guardrails product that predates the current focus on evaluation integrity; it stays up because a build log that gets quietly edited is not a build log. The current work is in the ledger.
The EU AI Act high-risk deadline is August 2, 2026. Here is what the key articles require and how to map them to your agent infrastructure.
Prompt injection is the most common attack vector against AI agents. Aegis detects it with 15+ pattern rules, zero dependencies, and sub-millisecond latency.
32% of MCP servers have critical vulnerabilities. The protocol has no built-in authorization. Here is how the Authensor MCP Gateway fixes that.
MCP SEP authorization protocol, Sentinel behavioral monitoring, Aegis content safety, shadow evaluation, and 924+ tests across 16 packages.
The receipt system is becoming the most important part of Authensor.
Operators need to see all agents and all policies in one place. Not per-agent dashboards.
The SDK needs to feel like a natural part of the agent framework, not an external dependency.
Nobody will use a product they can not find.
Policy changes need to propagate fast but not surprise anyone.
Shipped the interactive demo to authensor.com. You can define a policy and evaluate intents against it in real time.
Anything that does not reinforce the invariants gets deprioritized.
The prototype works; the point now is reducing failure modes before real usage.
The receipts viewer becomes more important as volume grows.
Connector quality directly controls blast radius.
Pilot is about learning safely, not proving production readiness.
This week is mostly about preventing accidental privilege creep.
Review needs to be fast and scoped; otherwise teams bypass it.
Receipts are now treated as an API product, not just internal logging.
The policy surface needs to stay universal (not tool-specific).
This is the first week where audit receipt stops being an implementation detail and becomes a product requirement.
