GitLab announced a public beta of its Duo Agent Platform for DevOps, enabling teams to manage AI agents for automating tasks. The platform allows synchronous and asynchronous task assignment with full visibility across the software development lifecycle. It features a catalog for AI agents, a knowledge graph for extensive data access, and supports the Model Context Protocol. AI agents will assist individual developers or entire teams, offering advanced capabilities beyond traditional chat interfaces and introducing a custom delegation language for task management.
The GitLab Duo Agent Platform will enable DevOps teams to assign tasks to AI agents both synchronously and asynchronously using an extensible platform that provides full visibility across the software development lifecycle.
AI agents will, as a result, become members of a DevOps team that might service the needs of a single developer or engineer or an entire software engineering team.
AI agents move well beyond simply providing a passive chat interface to interact with an AI model, providing advanced capabilities necessary for automating workflows.
DevOps teams will instead be able to have conversations that include capabilities to expand commands such as /explain, /tests, and /include, which create a delegation language.
