A new zero-dependency RBAC library for Python aims to simplify access control without the bloat. Developers can implement role-based permissions with minimal code, avoiding fragile custom systems or heavy frameworks.

The library supports role hierarchies, attribute-based rules, and multi-tenancy. It's designed for speed, handling over 10K authorization checks per second, and comes with 95% test coverage and security scanning.

Available on GitHub with a live playground, it's ideal for securing modern apps—including AI agents. The team now seeks feedback on next steps: Flask/FastAPI integrations or storage adapters. Early adoption could shape its roadmap.
