31 Aug 2026, 7:31 PM	The Hacker News	7.0	Securing Claude Code: The New Compliance API, Local Visibility, and Identity Governance Anthropic released new Compliance API endpoints for Claude Code that expose local session transcripts, giving security teams visibility into agent activity on developer machines for the first time. Local agents like Claude Code account for 68.6% of AI agents found in customer environments per Token Security, and they inherit the developer's credentials, network access, and permissions while running bash commands, reading files, and connecting to MCP servers. The article emphasizes that the harness (not the LLM) is what executes commands and authenticates to third parties, meaning visibility and control must live at the endpoint, not in Anthropic's cloud. Why: If your team runs Claude Code or similar local agent harnesses, those agents operate with your developers' credentials and network position — the new Compliance API transcript endpoints are your first native way to audit what commands they ran and what they accessed. Teams shipping AI agents locally should evaluate whether their current security model covers the harness layer (bash execution, MCP connections, file access) rather than just the LLM API call, and decide whether to integrate the new endpoints into their monitoring stack. claude-code security compliance-api ai-agents endpoint-security mcp
