SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Author or tailor Falco rules to govern AI coding agents' tool calls and their responses, enabling precise policy enforcement at runtime.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Create, edit, and debug Falco rules for the coding_agent plugin to enforce allow/deny/ask decisions on tool executions.
  • Trigger rules based on natural language prompts like "add a rule", "block this tool", or "deny access to" to modify files under rules/user/.
  • Provide guidance on using overrides, rule structure, and category tagging to align with security and compliance requirements.

Quick Start

Create or modify a rule under rules/user/ to start enforcing your policy for coding agent tool calls.

FAQPage Schema
How do I write Falco rules to block specific tool calls for AI coding agents?

You can write Falco rules under rules/user/ to enforce deny decisions on AI coding agent tool calls. Trigger rule creation using natural language prompts like "block this tool" or "deny access to" to modify files and restrict agent actions.

What are Falco rules for coding agents used for?

Falco rules for coding agents are used to govern AI tool calls and responses by enforcing allow, deny, or ask decisions at runtime. They enable precise policy enforcement and security compliance for automated coding workflows.

Can I use natural language prompts to create or edit Falco rules?

Yes, you can use natural language prompts like "add a rule", "block this tool", or "deny access to" to create or edit Falco rules. The skill applies these prompts to modify files in your rules/user/ directory and enforce runtime policies.

How do I debug custom Falco rules governing coding agent tool calls?

To debug custom Falco rules for coding agent tool calls, review the rule structures defined for the coding_agent source and check your user overrides. Ensure your SKILL.md frontmatter contains valid name and description fields for proper rule parsing.

Do I need a valid SKILL.md frontmatter to apply Falco rules to coding agents?

Yes, a valid SKILL.md frontmatter with name and description fields is required to apply Falco rules to coding agents. This frontmatter defines the rule structures for the coding_agent source and supports extension via user overrides and category tagging.

What is the best way to enforce security policies on AI coding agent responses?

The best way to enforce security policies on AI coding agent responses is to author custom Falco rules under rules/user/. This applies precise allow, deny, or ask decisions at runtime, governing both tool calls and agent responses to meet compliance requirements.
