A project is the top-level organizational unit in Devctrl. It contains everything related to a set of AI agents: identities, tasks, tools, policies, and audit logs.

​
Create a project

  1. Log in to the Devctrl Console
  2. Click Create Project on the dashboard
  3. Enter a name for your project (e.g., customer-support, data-pipeline)
  4. Set the default policy action

​
Default policy action

Every project has a default policy action that applies when no active policy release exists, or when no policy rules match a request:
ActionBehavior
Deny (recommended)Block all tool calls unless a policy explicitly allows them
AllowAllow all tool calls unless a policy explicitly blocks them
Start with Deny as the default. This follows the principle of least privilege — agents can’t do anything until you explicitly permit it.

​
Team members

Projects support team collaboration. You can invite other users to your project and assign roles:
  • Navigate to Settings in your project
  • Add members by email
  • Assign roles to control who can manage identities, policies, and tools

​
Project settings

In the project Settings page, you can:
  • Rename the project
  • Change the default policy action
  • Enable or disable MCP (the gateway won’t accept requests for this project if disabled)
  • Manage team members
  • Delete the project
Deleting a project removes all associated identities, tasks, tools, policies, and audit logs permanently. This action cannot be undone.
