Waymark v4.7.0 is Live — The Ultimate MCP Security Layer

Just shipped: 30% faster policy enforcement, real-time approvals dashboard, and better error messages.

The Problem We Solve

AI agents like Claude are awesome for code generation, but they can:

• 😱 Read your .env files
• 💥 Delete entire directories
• 🗂️ Modify sensitive database schemas

Waymark prevents this by sitting between your agent and the MCP tools.

What's New

⚡ Performance

• Policy evaluation: 30% faster
• Dashboard renders: 50% lighter
• New indexed database queries

🎯 Better UX

• Clearer error messages with reasons
• New CLI commands for testing policies
• Real-time action telemetry

🔐 Security Improvements

• Fixed symlink bypass issue
• Transactional approval workflow
• Immutable policy versions

Quick Example

{
  "allowedPaths": ["./src/**"],
  "blockedPaths": [".env", "secrets/"],
  "requireApproval": ["./migrations/**"],
  "blockedCommands": ["rm -rf", "DROP TABLE"]
}

→ Now Claude can write code safely while sensitive files stay protected.

The Numbers

Scenario	Result	Status

Read blocked file	BLOCK ❌	Blocked
Write requires approval	PENDING ⏳	Dashboard review
Dangerous command	BLOCK ❌	Blocked

100% policy enforcement across all scenarios.
