Temporal Comparison

What security controls does Catalyst provide for agent tools that Temporal lacks?

Catalyst provides workload identity and MCP tool authorization policies that let you control which tools agents can access and under what conditions, without modifying agent code. Temporal relies on application-level security within activities, requiring manual implementation of tool authorization. Catalyst's built-in policy layer simplifies securing agent tool usage across frameworks.
