Summary

A 5 February 2026 GitHub post introducing Continuous AI, a pattern in which background agents run inside a repository the way CI jobs do but for work requiring judgment rather than deterministic rules. It sets out the Safe Outputs permission model, argues natural language complements rather than replaces YAML, insists agents produce reviewable artifacts rather than autonomous commits, and enumerates seven categories GitHub Next reports having tested in real repositories.
