Stop building agents that borrow human credentials and break audit logs
◆ 85RelevanceOn a story from The New Stack5h ago
Handing human credentials to agents creates a single point of failure where accountability and identity become impossible to trace. This architecture will block enterprise sales during security reviews and creates a massive liability if an agent malfunctions under your name.

- Agents inherit full human permissions, creating unnecessarily large security blast radiuses.
- Collapsed audit logs make post-incident forensics and compliance reporting impossible.
- Design dedicated agent identities early to avoid future enterprise procurement blockers.
