Updated September 21, 2026 · 1 min read
Add misbehaviour rules on a worker's Guards so drafts can't skip the policy you care about.
Open Guards
- Open a worker and go to its Guards tab.
Add or edit a rule
- Click Add guard, describe the behavior to block in plain language, and save.
- To change an existing rule, open it, edit the criterion, and save again.
FAQ
What happens when a Guard is broken?
The draft that broke the rule is blocked from going out. Broken guards show up on the Result row so you can see why.
Do Guards apply to every Skill?
Guards apply worker-wide, checked against whatever the worker drafts regardless of which Skill produced it.
Can I see which Guard blocked a reply?
Yes. Open the Result row — broken guards are listed there alongside the draft that triggered them.
