About
railguard is a plugin bundle for AI coding tools published by railyard-dev. Marketplaces we read that list it: 1 (Claude Code: claude-plugins-community). We first saw it on 2026-10-11 and have recorded no change since. As of our marketplace pass on 2026-10-13.
Railguard is a safer, context-aware alternative to --dangerously-skip-permissions for Claude Code. Instead of choosing between approving every command manually or giving Claude unrestricted access, Railguard sits in the middle. It intercepts every tool call — Bash, Write, Edit, Read — and makes policy-based decisions: allow safe commands instantly, block dangerous ones automatically, and ask for human approval when it's not sure. Out of the box, Railguard comes with 29 default rules covering destructive operations like terraform destroy, rm -rf, DROP TABLE, and git force-push. It detects evasion attempts (base64 encoding, chr construction, variable substitution, shell wrapping), restricts file access with path fencing (blocking ~/.ssh, ~/.aws, /etc), snapshots every file write for one-click rollback, and logs every decision to a structured audit trail. Everything is customizable through a simple railguard.yaml file in your project directory.

Is this your plugin?
Add it to your projects and prove you maintain it with a file in its repository, a file on your domain or a DNS record. You get alerts when a marketplace lists it, drops it, changes its verified mark or what it asks for, and its remote endpoint goes on monitoring as a web service.
Data comes from the public marketplace file https://github.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-community/blob/HEAD/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json. Figures come from our own regular passes over the marketplaces, last read on . We publish no contact details for plugin publishers.
