## 📚 RAG Knowledge Base

Built-in retrieval-augmented Knowledge Base — no external vector database or separate retrieval service required.

## 🤖 Security sub-agents

Isolating dangerous tool responses from the main agent to prevent prompt injections.

## 🚫 Non-probabalistic security to prevent data exfiltration

Models could consume prompt injections via MCP uncontrollably (read your inbox, read your GitHub issues, read your customer's inquiries) and follow them resulting in data exfiltration.

## 💰 Cost monitoring, limits and dynamic optimization

Per-team, per-agent or per-org cost monitoring and limitations. Dynamic optimizer allows to reduce cost up to 96% by simply switching to cheaper models automatically for simpler tasks.

## 📊 Observability

Metrics, traces and logs allowing to come to a conclusion about per-org, per-agent and per-team token and tool usage, and performance.
