As the deployer, it is your responsibility to ensure your agent complies with applicable laws.

You are responsible for configuring approval policies, tool restrictions, connection scopes, route/session authorization, sandbox controls, telemetry exports, and other safeguards appropriate for your use case.

Before using eve with non-public, sensitive, regulated, or production data, review what the agent can reach. Check its default tools, custom tools, MCP tools, shell/file/web tools, connected services, subagents, schedules, and external actions.

Require human approval or other safeguards for sensitive, irreversible, regulated, financial, healthcare, employment, housing, legal, safety-impacting, user-impacting, or external side-effecting actions.

Unless you configure stricter controls, eve agents may operate with permissive settings. Tools without an approval setting run without human approval, and sandbox network egress is not deny-all. Do not rely on model behavior alone to prevent sensitive or irreversible actions.
