Table of Contents
Introduction to GitLab Duo Agent Platform
GitLab Duo Agent Platform is a next-gen AI orchestration system that transforms the software development workflow by enabling collaboration between human developers and specialized AI agents. With AI agents working alongside the development team at every stage of the software development lifecycle, tasks can be delegated, vulnerabilities can be scanned, and progress can be analyzed seamlessly. The public beta of GitLab Duo Agent Platform is now available for GitLab.com and self-managed GitLab Premium and Ultimate customers. Watch the video for more information.
GitLab's Unique Position as an Orchestration Platform
GitLab serves as the central system of record for engineering teams, coordinating the entire development journey from concept to production for millions of users worldwide. With GitLab 18.0, the platform has evolved to become an agent orchestration platform, allowing users to create, customize, and deploy AI agents that enhance productivity. These AI agents operate within GitLab, providing full context and privileges to users, unlike external AI tools. The platform enables users to interact with AI agents individually and as customizable building blocks, such as the Chat Agent currently in beta, which responds to natural language requests with full platform privileges.
