Large-language model (LLM) agents execute actions on external systems through tool calls, and enterprises deploy runtime controls, such as agent gateways, to check this behavior in real time. However, a control can only evaluate the actions that cross the point where it is placed, and an agent can act through more paths than the tool-call channel; no existing work measures this coverage against kernel-level ground truth. In this paper, we present guardscope, a framework that makes this coverage measurable. guardscope works in two stages: a static stage that predicts which of an agent's 15 action paths a control can check from its source, and an empirical stage that runs a fixed workload on a deployment that realizes one of eight topology designs and classifies every executed action as checked, bypassed, or prevented by reconciling the control's decision records against kernel-level ground truth. guardscope makes a control's coverage claim verifiable: a runtime control developer can publish which paths its product inspects under a kernel-verified protocol. We conducted experiments with two agent harnesses and real runtime controls, including Microsoft's agent governance toolkit and agentgateway. guardscope is available at https://github.com/VulcanLab/guardscope.
