Control
What Runlayer can see and stop in Oh My Pi
Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Oh My Pi exposes to Runlayer.
Gateway policy (available)
Every Metabase call from Oh My Pi passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.
Audit trail (available)
Each call is recorded with the user, Oh My Pi as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.
Native enforcement adapter (not available)
Runlayer has no device-side adapter for Oh My Pi yet, so control happens at the gateway.
