GitHub makes Agentic Workflows generally available with guarded GitHub Actions agent execution

On 28 October 2026 GitHub announced general availability of Agentic Workflows after a February technical preview. Markdown-defined agents compile into Actions configurations for issue, CI, test and maintenance tasks with guarded execution and default read-only permissions. This verifies release and documented controls, not independent safety performance, general autonomy or Accenture's 91%-of-commits claim.
