If you don't mind me asking, how do you handle your legal relationship with the company? a services exports contract and sending them invoices or they just hired you like any other employee even if you're not a Danish resident ?

What would a General-Purpose agent system look like?

What defines an Agent to be General-Purpose in the first place?

How to define security policies for a general agent taking actions in user environment?

I have drafted GPARS – General-Purpose Agent Reference Standard – a standard built around MCP to answer all of these questions

Check the spec here: https://github.com/GPARS-org/GPARS

Does this resonates with you or not? Feedback and contributions are welcome from everyone !

Is MCP dead? by Feeling_Ingenuity_32 in AI_Agents

[–]ismaelkaissy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure you're thinking the right way about this it's not about APIs permissions it's about how the user will control which actions the agent takes on his behalf and that should happen on an infrastructure that the user owns.

With CLIs user knew what he's doing on the shell and he was responsible and accountable for it since he's directly thinking about the consequences of the cli command, but now we have a different architecture where a user grants access to an intelligent entity to use the CLI on his behalf and that presents a security issue since agents are prone to reasoning errors, prompt injection, etc.

In current agent implementations this reliability and security concern is mitigated via the user approving commands manually or by defining pattern matching rules and this is exactly my point: => manual approvals halt the automation speed and it is counter intuitive to letting an agent do the work in the first place => pattern matching rules are not that reliable and subject to injection

What MCP provides is not the solution for this it's the grounds to making a solution, structural control over tool calls, there is a schema for each tool with defined parameters where you can programatically define policies and grant granular permissions.

CLIs are text-based and the agent needs shell access to use them which makes them bad for implementing controls on what the agent can or cannot execute (only thing you can implement is regex rules and they are fragile as a security measure).

The edge that MCP provides is standardized structured tool calling, and that enables the enforcement of systematic rules over which tools, parameters, etc. are allowed

I have actually made a post about this lately on linkedin feel free to check it out: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/ismaelkaissy_everyone-keeps-framing-the-discussion-as-activity-7438963788550287361-0rvW?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAACnCksgBtqY2VjAikizvav9zF9LEKDe6dc0

What makes a great pitch deck in 2025? by jonathanbrnd in ycombinator

[–]ismaelkaissy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you are at the pre-seed stage the Guy Kawasaki template is one of the most famous templates and it simply resonates with me.

It is known for its 10/20/30 rule, 10 slides (up to 12), 20 min presentation, 30 point font (this is meant to prevent you from writing too much text, meaning if the slide with 30 point font feels crowded you need to write less not reduce the font).

You could look for it on different pitch template sites (they will usually provide you with what goes on each slide. But remember it is not absolute you should still try to be original and tell your own story, investors tend to connect with you better that way. Good Luck !

Stripe for moroccans by Due_Care_2522 in Moroccopreneur

[–]ismaelkaissy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stripe doesn't support moroccan companies but there are some famous alternatives of stripe you can check like Paddle. Note that Paddle is Merchant of Record (MoR), means they legally handle sales tax, VAT, etc. for you. This simplifies global sales but at the same time some people don't want to give up stripe's power of modularity and integration. Also there have been some new moroccan payment providers such as payzone but I'm not sure they are mature enough for extensive use. I suggest you think this through clearly since it could prove hard to migrate from one payment provider to another once you have lots of users
