Anthropic introduced new Compliance API endpoints that give security teams detailed visibility into Claude Code, an AI‑driven developer assistant that reads files, runs shell commands and uses local credentials. The endpoints expose session transcripts from local agents, addressing a gap where prior native controls could not monitor endpoint activity. Local AI agents now represent 68.6 % of the agents discovered by Token Security in customer environments, inheriting users’ permissions and network positions, which shifts the security perimeter from the cloud to the endpoint. Anthropic’s managed‑settings files—JSON on macOS/Linux and registry entries on Windows—allow enterprises to enforce allow/deny lists and disable risky skills, though these static policies may limit developer flexibility. The update marks a move toward endpoint‑centric governance for AI tools that operate outside traditional SaaS dashboards.
