Introducing independent agents: AI coworkers securely built for autonomous, multiplayer work

What this post added

Introduces independent agents as a new class of AI coworkers built on Glean's context layer. These agents enable autonomous execution across enterprise applications (Jira, Slack, Teams) with a focus on security and governance. Key features include: identity with context (provisioned access, distinct profiles), memory (learning from company data and interactions), proactivity (acting without explicit prompts), and accountability (traceable actions, emergency stop). The OnCall Assistant is presented as a specific implementation for engineering on-call escalations.
