OpenLeash 0.35: the policy engine rewrite
4× faster evaluation, streaming policy reloads, and a new dry-run mode for testing rules before they bite.
The 0.35 release tightens the runtime path and makes policy iteration safer for local and managed deployments.
The short version
Policy engine speed matters because agents are no longer just suggesting changes. They read files, call tools, run commands, and move context between systems.
OpenLeash keeps that power visible. Every plugin can inspect an event, make a decision, and leave an audit trail that humans can understand later.
What OpenLeash watches
Prompts, tool calls, sessions, skills, logs, and startup inventory all flow through the same event model. Plugins can block, mask, rewrite, compress, export, or simply observe.
That keeps the workflow fast when the agent is safe and explicit when the blast radius changes.
