Runtime Per-Call Policy Enforcement
A security mechanism in which, on every tool or API call by an agent, an independent policy engine evaluates the caller's identity, target resource, parameters, and context in real time, deciding within milliseconds whether to allow or block the call.

Google's official blog emphasized the necessity of verifiable agent identity and runtime per-call policy enforcement.
Runtime Per-Call Policy Enforcement means that at the moment an agent initiates each tool or API call, a policy engine independent of the agent's code evaluates the call in real time: checking the caller's identity, target resource, parameter content, and context, and making an allow-or-block decision within milliseconds.
The technical challenges of runtime per-call policy enforcement lie in low latency (evaluation must complete within tens of milliseconds), policy expressiveness (it must cover parameter-level and contextual conditions), and standardization (there is currently no cross-platform policy description format).
The multi-party consensus is that runtime per-call policy enforcement is the core gap in current agent security.
