Palana (Part 1): Why Grab built a secure platform for autonomous AI Agents (opens in new tab)

They can read code, call application programming interfaces (APIs), run tests, create merge requests, answer Slack messages, and keep long-running state. That makes them useful, but it also changes the risk model - especially as agents get more autonomous in their use of tools.
