From Assistance to Agency: Rethinking Autonomy and Control in CI/CD Pipelines
This research paper addresses the emerging challenge of designing safe AI agents for CI/CD pipelines by introducing a framework distinguishing between data-plane authority (localized interventions) and control-plane authority (configuration changes). The authors argue that current systems prioritize bounded autonomy with external governance rather than intrinsic safety guarantees, identifying control-plane safety and formalization of autonomy boundaries as critical research gaps.
