Most AI agent demos won't survive enterprise security review

#1
OpenClaw is a genuinely impressive demo of how capable AI agents have become.

It made me think about something I don’t see discussed as much:

Most agent frameworks optimize for capability and iteration speed. That makes sense for personal assistants.

But enterprise environments operate under very different constraints:

- No inbound tunnels – Strict egress control – Identity enforcement – Tenant isolation – Audit logging – Deployment portability (local/cloud/air-gapped)

When agents move from “assistant” to “worker,” the runtime layer becomes critical.

Curious how others here are thinking about:

What does a production-grade AI agent runtime need to look like for regulated environments?

Would love to hear real-world deployment experiences.
