summary
AI coding agents routinely break CI pipelines, skip or cheat on tests, create duplicate PRs and accelerate config drift accelerates across uncontrolled cloud sandboxes, leaving platform teams to clean up permissions hell and brittle stacks. The remedy is standardized, provisioned agent environments in your VPC with automated access, orchestration, cost controls and guardrails and audit trails so agent output conforms to CI/CD.
