Help & Guides
Everything you need, in order: getting the program, installing it on your PC, setting it up correctly whether you have one screen or several, what every section of the app does, and the recommendations that keep you protected. Prefer to ask instead of read? The Guardian live agent on the home page knows all of this — ask it anything below and it answers on the spot.
AgentWall is coming soon — it is finished being built and is in final release preparation. Join the waitlist and you will get one email at launch with your download link and your 90-day free trial. When it launches, this is exactly how it works:
Only download AgentWall from agentwallapp.com or your launch email. That is the one official source — copies from anywhere else are not ours.
AgentWall-Setup.exe (or the .msi).Your data stays yours. Your settings and your audit ledger live in a data folder on your PC (%APPDATA%\com.agentwall.desktop). Installing a newer version keeps them — your history carries over.
Open Settings → Apps → AgentWall → Uninstall. Uninstalling removes the program but deliberately leaves your data folder in place, because your audit ledger is your evidence record. If you want everything gone, delete that folder yourself afterwards — the Settings page inside AgentWall shows its exact location.
One screen is fully supported. ShareGuard creates a mirror window — a live copy of your screen with every detected secret covered — and you share that window instead of your screen.
One covered rectangle is normal. The mirror refuses to show the strip of screen where the mirror window itself sits — that area stays covered on purpose, so the mirror can never accidentally show an unscanned copy of itself. It is the design working, not a bug.
If the mirror shows “Sharing paused — catching up”, ShareGuard is holding the last safe frame while it re-scans a change. That freeze is the protection working — a covered freeze always beats a leaky frame.
Two or more screens is the most comfortable layout — it is the setup AgentWall is developed and tested on:
Tip: turn on “Mirror window always on top” in Settings if the mirror keeps getting buried under other windows on its screen.
AgentWall has five pages. Here is what each one is, what you will find in it, and how to set it up correctly.
What it is: the home screen and the master switchboard. What’s in it: the Arm / Disarm switch (Disarm stops all capture instantly), live counters for frames captured, analysed and withheld, a summary of detections, and the audit status — you want to see “Audit Chain Intact”.
Set it up right: leave AgentWall disarmed until an agent or a screen share is actually about to happen, then arm it. Disarming is always one click away.
What it is: the only door an AI agent can knock on. Agents connect to the broker on your own PC only (it never listens to the internet), receive only the redacted screen, and must propose every action — nothing runs without your approval.
What’s in it: Start/Stop for the broker (off by default), the agent token list, and the approval queue. Tokens: create one named token per agent, copy it into that agent’s configuration — it is shown once, so save it in the agent’s settings right away. Approvals: when an agent proposes something risky, a popup shows exactly what it wants to do, with a 60-second countdown — no answer means denied.
Set it up right: one token per agent, never shared. Revoke a token the moment an agent should stop — revoking cuts that agent off immediately, even mid-session.
What it is: the live mirror window that makes Zoom calls, meetings and streams safe: viewers see your screen with secrets already covered.
What’s in it: the source picker (one display, or one application window), Start / Pause / Resume / Stop, and session information. If you disarm AgentWall mid-share, the mirror freezes on a covered frame rather than going dark or leaking.
Set it up right: start ShareGuard before joining the call, then share the mirror window — see the one-screen and multi-screen guides.
What it is: the complete history of what happened: every capture, detection, approval decision, token, broker and ShareGuard session — each entry locked to the previous one in a hash chain, so any tampering breaks the chain and is visible. Detected values are never in it — only type, place and time.
What’s in it: the entry list, the chain verification status, Export (a signed JSON copy of the whole ledger), and Reports — a printable evidence report summarising activity and detections for a date range.
Set it up right: export a copy after any important session and keep it with your records. If verification ever reports a problem, the app tells you plainly and stops rather than quietly continuing.
What it is: the quiet page: display and behaviour preferences, plus everything about your data.
What’s in it: “Mirror window always on top” (off by default), your data folder location and how to remove it completely, and the app version.
Set it up right: there is nothing you must change — the defaults are the safe ones. Visit Settings when you want the mirror pinned on top, or when you are removing AgentWall for good.
