Our Journey to Safely Unleash Agents at Meta Scale
summary
Meta provisions X.509 cert per agent to differentiate agent from human identity, uses an LLM risk scoring of RPCs and CLIs to tag dangerous operations, and classifies millions of assets so agents can be blocked from touching sensitive ones. Real incidents include an agent that deleted a logger and one that force-landed 200 diffs from 28 engineers, causing a day of rollbacks. Enforcement requires propagating agent identity to the repository, measuring guardrail friction, and practicing timed recovery workflows.
