Wardyn Sample Workspaces
This directory is a catalog of small, self-contained workspaces that let an
operator exercise every major Wardyn governance control without writing code.
Each subdirectory is a minimal but runnable project paired with a TASK.md
that gives the exact task text for the agent, the wardyn run command to
issue, and the observable PASS criteria.
How to use this catalog
Option A — point a run at a git host.
Push a workspace subdirectory to any public (or private, with a configured
GitHub App) repository, then pass it as --repo. The dispatcher records the
slug as audit metadata and the agent launcher shallow-clones it into the
sandbox workspace (~/work/<name>) through the governed egress proxy before
the task runs — public GitHub repos clone with no credentials (github.com is
allowlisted in the demo policy); private repos authenticate via the brokered
wardyn-git-helper (no token ever enters the sandbox env).
Option B — supply the task text directly.
The exact task text in each TASK.md is crafted so that even an empty
~/work directory is a meaningful test of the governance control. Omit
--repo or pass any slug as a label; the governed behavior under test does not
depend on the workspace files being present.
Option C — API-key-free probe.
Run examples/workspaces/probes.sh against a live sandbox (any RUNNING run)
to exercise every egress control with raw curl and wardyn-git-helper
calls. No Anthropic key needed.
Prerequisites
# Start the stack:
make demo
export WARDYN_URL=http://localhost:8080
export WARDYN_ADMIN_TOKEN=demo-admin-token
The demo policy (examples/policies/demo.json) allowlists github.com and
*.githubusercontent.com and sets first_use_approval: "deny_with_review".
That is the policy in force for all scenarios below unless noted otherwise.
Scenario catalog
| # | Directory | Wardyn control exercised | Expected observable outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | benign/ |
Full happy path: recording, attributed audit, clean egress | Run reaches RUNNING; wardyn audit shows run.exec success; Replay tab has a session; no pending approvals |
| 2 | exfil-attempt/ |
L2 egress deny / first-use PENDING for an unlisted domain | egress.deny or approval.create (kind=egress_domain) for webhook.example.com; no bytes leave the sandbox; request body is never forwarded |
| 3 | metadata-probe/ |
Builtin private-IP unconditional deny (invariant 3) | egress.deny with rule_source=builtin:private-ip; HTTP 403 returned to the agent; no approval queue entry (the block is unconditional — approval cannot override it) |
| 4 | needs-approval/ |
First-use approval queue: PENDING -> APPROVED or DENIED | Approval entry with kind=egress_domain for example.com visible in the UI Approvals tab; approving unlocks subsequent requests; denying produces egress.deny |
| 5 | github-push/ |
Brokered git credential chain: credential ApprovalRequest -> approve -> time-limited token (or fail-closed without a GitHub App) |
approval.create kind=credential in audit; on approval the broker runs the mint path and writes credential.mint (or credential.mint.fail if no GitHub App is configured — the fail-closed path is the expected PASS for a stock demo) |
| 6 | long-running/ |
Lifecycle reaper auto-stop | Run advances to STOPPED after auto_stop_after_sec; audit event run.autostop is emitted; the sandbox container is removed |
Workspace source layout
Each workspace contains:
- Source files — minimal but runnable (a few files, no generated artifacts).
TASK.md— the exact task text, the wardyn run command, what to watch, and the PASS criteria.
No workspace contains secrets or credentials of any kind.
Probe script
probes.sh is a standalone bash library of docker exec one-liners that
drive each control directly inside a live sandbox. It requires a RUNNING
container whose name or id is passed as SANDBOX_REF and exercises every
control with raw network calls — no Anthropic key, no Claude required.
SANDBOX_REF=wardyn-agent-<run-id> bash examples/workspaces/probes.sh
