Runtime authorization & controls

Arcade

Actions runtime that brokers agent tool calls to SaaS systems, handling OAuth and user token storage and applying per-action authorization so an agent acts within both the user's and its own scope. Pre- and post-tool-call hooks allow blocking or redaction, though the hosted tool catalogue is vendor-maintained.

Ask for a demonstration

Show me an agent calling a Gmail tool through Arcade where the user consents via OAuth, a pre-tool-call hook blocks a send action, and the audit log records the decision.

Capabilities and evidence

Support labels reflect the supplied research. Documentation and vendor claims are not independent product tests. “Not established” means the researcher did not find support; it does not prove a capability is absent.

Documented by provider

Arcade handles OAuth and user token management and enforces security policies on every action, adding per-action authorization at runtime on top of existing IdP, DLP and compliance policies.

Limit: Documentation home page does not specify policy syntax or how conflicts with IdP policy are resolved.

Vendor claim

The product page states pre- and post-tool-call hooks can inspect requests and responses to block sensitive actions, redact PII and prevent data leaving systems.

Limit: Hook behaviour and failure modes are asserted on the product page rather than documented in reference material fetched here.

Documented by provider

Arcade provides a large catalogue of agent-optimised tools across MCP servers and supports connection from MCP clients such as Cursor, VS Code and Claude Desktop, with a central governance control plane.

Limit: Tool counts are vendor-reported; individual tool integrations were not verified.
