ABC Legal Puts Agents Under Version Control

Treating agent behavior like code is one of the most practical patterns emerging in production AI.

• –Git provides change history, review workflows, rollback, and clear ownership
• –YAML separates configuration from Markdown instructions, keeping agent definitions readable
• –Repository-based agents can be tested, documented, and deployed through existing engineering pipelines
• –The approach improves portability across agent runtimes and reduces dependence on opaque platform settings
• –Teams still need validation, secrets management, and runtime observability around the files
