Hashling is a macOS security agent that monitors AI agents, network connections, and mobile devices, explaining threats in plain language and requiring Touch ID for any changes. It stands out by integrating with LLM-based assistants via MCP, enabling users to query their own AI security engineer, while providing a user-friendly interface for non-experts. The project combines multiple open-source tools for device checks and emphasizes privacy with local-only operation.

Target audience: macOS users, especially non-technical individuals and developers concerned about AI agent security
