You connect AI agents to APIs like Stripe or GitHub. Most people do this wrong. They give the agent the API key. This is a mistake.
API keys let anyone do anything. A leak means you lose money. Prompt injections make this worse.
Fix this with a broker.
- Put the secret in a broker. The agent never sees it.
- Give the agent a scoped token.
- The broker checks rules first. It checks spend limits and hosts.
- The broker adds the secret only if rules match.
- Log every call in a safe list.
This setup helps you.
- The agent is unable to steal the key.
- You stop access in one click.
- You block bad actions before they happen.
Use OAuth tokens if you have them. They work better.
I work on Vertex. We use this pattern.
