Beams security model starts an agent with zero standing privileges. The agent proposes
execution plans to be reviewed by a user or a model.
Delegate identity with zero standing privileges. Allow execution plans.
Task: troubleshoot application crash in prod/app
Alice assigns the task
Illustrative review flow. Alice assigns a crash investigation to an agent with zero
standing privileges. A model approves a read-only log plan; Alice denies a production
restart: Too risky, find other means. No executor starts for the denied plan. Approval
returns to the requesting agent before it dispatches the approved plan to a separate
execution beam. Only the executor connects to Kubernetes, through the Protocol-Aware Proxy
in the virtual network. Results return to the requester; its privileges never change.
Commands and approvals are simulated. A restart is not a guaranteed fix.
Each beam (the underlying micro-VM) cycles and rebuilds every 12 hours. Fresh builds
minimize CVE exposure. The data mounted in /home in the Phase is retained.
Beams continuously discovers cloud accounts in your organization.
AWS organization / prod + dev
Audit / Session Summarizer
Illustrative creation sequence: Alice delegates the zero-standing-privileges role to the
Phase. The role is inherited only when the delegation arrives; it does not grant standing
resource access. No commands are executed and no cloud resources are created. Each scene
plays once and holds. Scene 2 is an exploded logical view of the same Phase; the container
runs inside the VM, not above a separate machine. Use the component controls to inspect
each part. Use Play to continue or watch a completed scene again. Scene 3 illustrates a
retained Phase environment across 12-hour beam rotations. A fresh base image replaces the
micro-VM, not the /home checkpoint. A fork copies /home into a separate Phase with its own
runtime; private keys are not copied. Build commands and revise/evaluate cycles are
illustrative: no commands run, and snapshot restores do not guarantee model improvement.
Scene 4 shows illustrative AWS account and resource discovery, IAM enrollment, scoped
authorization and concurrent audit capture. The zero-standing-privileges role does not
itself grant resource access: the illustrated policy permits pod reads in prod/app and
model inference before requests are sent. Astra and GLM 5 are illustrative model labels,
not verified Bedrock model IDs or availability claims. Kubernetes and database traffic use
the Protocol-Aware Proxy; only model inference uses the LLM proxy. Both proxies are inside
the virtual network. Risk scores and summaries are simulated, not actual analysis.
