Agent Runners

Agent Runners

Agent Runners is a tool designed to streamline the process of deploying AI-generated code. It allows teams to quickly and efficiently move from generating code to having it live in production. By integrating with powerful AI agents like Claude Code, Codex, or Gemini, Agent Runners provides a seamless workflow directly from the Netlify Dashboard.

Benefits

Agent Runners offers several key advantages:

• Speed: Go from prompt to live deployment in seconds.
• Context: Work with full production context, ensuring changes are accurate and relevant.
• Control: Enterprise-grade guardrails keep your team in control with features like role-based access controls, isolated environments, and instant rollback capabilities.
• Integration: Compatible with existing GitHub workflows and processes.
• Safety: Changes are tracked, reversible, and auditable, ensuring a secure deployment process.

Use Cases

Agent Runners can be used in various scenarios:

• Fix and Ship Instantly: Patch broken links, resolve runtime errors, or update content directly in production.
• Experiment with New Ideas: Prototype rapidly with your live app’s code, from UX tweaks to backend logic.
• Work in Your Live Environment: Run agent tasks against your real app with full production context.
• Create in a Browser: Deploy prototypes built in tools like Bolt or Lovable instantly with one click or drag and drop.
• Code with AI Assistance: Connect agents to Netlify’s context and push to Git, with live previews for every change.

Vibes

Agent Runners has received positive feedback from users. Gus Fune, CTO of DivBrands, noted, "I’ve seen plenty of AI coding assistants that can code. The real challenge has always been validation in an environment that truly matches your live infrastructure. Netlify completely changed that—no surprises when you deploy, no waiting for staging, no mysterious production-only bugs."
