Description
Runtime failure resolution for Claude Code and other coding agents, using Claude Code hooks to detect and mitigate loops, hallucinations, context drift, dangerous actions, and secret leaks before they become incidents. Ships with 30 built-in policies, runs as a local sidecar process with zero added latency, and supports custom policies via a simple JavaScript API. No data leaves the machine.
Validate Claims
Install failproof ai (npm install -g failproofai && failproofai policies --install), then run failproofai to launch the local dashboard at localhost:8020. In a Claude Code session, instruct the agent to enter an infinite loop (e.g., "keep searching for a file named xyz until you find it"). The loop policy should fire within seconds, break the loop, and log the event in the dashboard.
Specific Task(s)
Ask Claude Code to recursively search an entire large repo for a non-existent file, repeating the search in a loop until it finds it. Observe whether failproof ai detects and breaks the infinite loop.
Specific Prompt(s)
Search this entire repository recursively for a file called "magic_config.yaml". Keep searching in different subdirectories until you find it. Do not stop until you locate it.
Additional Comments
All processing is local, we capture anonymized data around installs and triggers for telemetry, which can be turned off at the discretion of the user, no personal data or session data is ever captured. The dashboard runs at localhost:8020. The tool hooks into Claude Code's PreToolUse and PostToolUse hook lifecycle events.
