DevOps / SRE Agents

Let agents operate production without giving them unlimited production authority.

Core problem

Ops agents need broad observability and remediation tooling. Runtime authorization separates inspection and diagnostics from destructive authority.

Typical actors

  • SRE automation agents
  • Kubernetes automation
  • Cloud API automation
