Jack Batzner shows how to add a governance layer to MCP-based AI agents in .NET using the Agent Governance Toolkit, including policy-driven tool-call authorization, security scanning of tool definitions, response sanitization to reduce prompt-injection risk, and built-in audit/telemetry via OpenTelemetry.

Jack Batzner explains why MCP needs a governance layer between tool discovery and execution, then introduces Microsoft’s open-source Agent Governance Toolkit (AGT) for deterministic per-call policy checks, response inspection, identity, and audit logging to reduce agentic risks like tool poisoning and prompt injection.
