# AgentGuards status
Report the current state of AgentGuards protection.
1. Call the `health_check` tool from the `agentguards` MCP server.
2. Report:
- **Service reachability** from `health_check` (healthy / unreachable).
- **API key**: whether `AGENTGUARDS_API_KEY` is set (show only the `ag_` prefix
and length, never the full token).
- **URL**: the value of `AGENTGUARDS_URL`, or the default
`https://prod.agentguards.co`.
- **Fail mode**: fail-closed unless `AGENTGUARDS_FAIL_OPEN=true`.
- **Active guardrails**: `BeforeAgent` input scanning, `BeforeTool` shell-command
authorization, `AfterTool` web-content scanning, and the MCP tools
`check_input`, `authorize_action`, `validate_output`, `evaluate_policy`.
3. If the service is unreachable or the key is missing, walk the user through the
setup steps (set `AGENTGUARDS_API_KEY` and restart Gemini CLI).
