Agent-Driven CI
Agent-driven CI describes workflows in which software agents trigger, inspect, or respond to build and test runs. It is an automation pattern rather than a standard protocol, and the underlying CI permissions and checks still apply.
Also known as: agentic CI
Why it matters
Automated diagnosis can shorten feedback loops while still respecting release and permission policies.
Practical example
Allow an agent to inspect failed tests and propose a fix while keeping deployment approval under an explicit policy.
