Review what an agent is actually allowed to do before you turn it loose — the tool-by-tool audit (each capability's blast radius), the least-privilege pass that removes what the task doesn't need, the dangerous-combination check, and the allow/ask/deny tiering. Use when asked review my agent's permissions, what can this agent actually do, lock down my agent's tools, or is this MCP/tool set safe to grant. Produces the permission inventory with blast radius, the least-privilege cuts, the dangerous-combo flags, and the allow/ask/deny assignments.

An agent's danger isn't its intelligence — it's its permissions. A brilliant agent that can only read is safe; a mediocre one that can send email, run shell commands, and read your filesystem is a breach waiting for a bad prompt or a hijacked page. Permission review is the security discipline every agent setup skips: inventory what it can actually do (tools, MCP servers, computer use, each with its real blast radius), cut everything the task doesn't need (least privilege — the single highest-leverage security move), flag the combinations that are dangerous together even when each is fine…
