Governed by your standards. Connect a repo and PermaShip starts working immediately. Domain-specialized agents scan for vulnerabilities, write missing tests, catch performance issues, propose features, and identify technical debt. Every proposal is reviewed by Nexus, an executive agent that applies your organization's strategic alignment, risk tolerance, and engineering standards before anything moves. You control how far it goes. In supervised mode, vetted proposals surface for your review before execution. In autonomous mode, the executive layer acts independently and briefs you after. ![nexus-governs-through-night](https://permaship.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/nexus-governs-through-night.webp?width=1700&height=1140&name=nexus-governs-through-night.webp) The Roster ## Domain Specialists. One Executive Layer. Each agent is an expert in their domain but unaware of what the others are proposing. The executive layer holds the full picture. It evaluates every proposal in the context of everything else in flight, resolves conflicts before they reach your codebase, and decides what actually ships. ![CISO Agent — Security](https://permaship.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/CISO%20Agent%20%E2%80%94%20Security.png?width=500&height=500&name=CISO%20Agent%20%E2%80%94%20Security.png) #### CISO Agent, Security Continuously scans for vulnerabilities, exposed secrets, auth gaps, and dependency risk.

Keeps PermaShip calibrated and improving over time. AgentOps Agent, Agent Health The Executive Agent ## Only Nexus can create a ticket. Everything else has to earn it. Nexus governs and applies your organization's strategic alignment, risk posture, and values to every proposal before anything moves. Every agent submits findings and makes their case. Nexus decides whether it's worth doing, at the right time, for the right reason. ## Gatekeeps the execution pipeline Only Nexus can create tickets in PermaShip. Every other agent has to present its case and satisfy Nexus's criteria before work moves forward. This means your team only sees what's genuinely worth their attention. [Get Started](https://permaship.ai/pricing?hsLang=en) ## **Validates sensibility before anything gets built**  Before anything is ever executed, Nexus makes sure it's even sensible to ask for the thing to be built. Bad ideas don't make it to the PR stage. [Get Started](https://permaship.ai/pricing?hsLang=en) ## **Runs cross-agent review**  A security finding gets pressure-tested by the SRE and CI/CD agents before it moves forward. A QA proposal gets reviewed for performance impact. Nothing is a single agent's opinion. [Get Started](https://permaship.ai/pricing?hsLang=en) ## Performant Website Low-risk, high-confidence proposals, dependency updates, lint fixes, test additions, can be auto-approved based on criteria your team defines. Higher-stakes findings route to human review. You decide where the line is. [Get Started](https://permaship.ai/pricing?hsLang=en) ## **Builds organizational memory**  Every approval, rejection, and modification your team makes feeds back into Nexus's understanding of what your organization values. Over time, PermaShip gets more accurate, more relevant, and harder to replace. [Get Started](https://permaship.ai/pricing?hsLang=en) ## Works for technical and non-technical users Nexus can be a customer's only interaction point with PermaShip. It fields proposals from agents and requests from humans. A technical founder and a non-technical operator can both use it without friction.

Nexus oversees the full agent roster, applies your organization's strategic alignment and risk posture, runs cross-agent peer review, and gates the execution pipeline. Nothing moves without clearing Nexus. ![Runners](https://permaship.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Icons/Runners.png?width=500&height=500&name=Runners.png) ### Runners Every job runs in its own isolated container. No shared runtimes between jobs. No cross-tenant access. Disposable workspaces, nothing persists between runs. ![MCP Integration Gateway](https://permaship.ai/hs-fs/hubfs/Icons/MCP%20Integration%20Gateway.png?width=500&height=500&name=MCP%20Integration%20Gateway.png) #### MCP Integration Gateway Connect external tools and services into PermaShip's execution context directly from the dashboard.

Not bolted on Engineered by security experts, here's exactly how PermaShip handles agents connecting to your codebase. - Data isolation - Least privilege by default - Execution isolation - Secrets handling - Evidence bundles - Audit logs - Compliance roadmap Data isolation Organization and project boundaries are enforced at every layer. Row-level security scoping on all data access. Cross-tenant data access is prevented at the architectural level.. Data residency controls available for enterprise accounts. Least privilege by default Access is scoped to what PermaShip needs and nothing more. High-risk actions gate behind explicit human approval. Autonomy levels are configurable per action type. New integrations start with minimum access. Budget guardrails with usage attribution prevent runaway costs. Execution isolation Every job runs in its own isolated container runtime. No shared runtimes between executions. Network egress controlled via explicit allowlists. Filesystem isolation means disposable workspaces per run with nothing persisting between sessions. CPU, memory, and time resource limits enforced per job. Optional microVM isolation available on enterprise tier. Secrets handling Secrets are injected at runtime via vault-style architecture and never persisted to disk, logs, or generated code. Scoped per project with no global access. Automatic redaction in all output streams. Rotation support with zero-downtime re-injection. Evidence bundles Every execution produces a complete evidence package: diffs, logs, check results, and approval records. Proof of what changed, who approved, and what evidence supports it. Exportable for compliance reviews and external audits. Immutable records that cannot be modified after creation. Audit logs Every action recorded: triggers, approvals, code changes, merges. Immutable audit trail with no ability to modify or delete entries. Export to your SIEM or log aggregator on Enterprise. User attribution on every event.   Compliance roadmap SOC 2 Type II in progress. GDPR-compliant data handling and deletion. Data processing agreements available. Regular third-party penetration testing. Security questionnaire responses available on request. End The Chaos ## Stop managing agents. Start getting outcomes.
