Comparison
gate22 vs aigis
Verdict
Pick gate22 if gate22 is an open-source MCP gateway and control plane for governing AI agents' tool usage and actions with comprehensive auditability; pick aigis if aigis is a deterministic zero-dependency Python firewall for AI agents offering protection against threats like memory poisoning and prompt injection with no external dependencies or complex configurations.
