Modal now offers Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for Team and Enterprise plans, building on the concept of Environments as secure access boundaries. This system allows for granular control over human and agent access to Modal resources, enabling the creation of Restricted Environments where only explicitly granted users or service users can deploy or manage applications. RBAC integrates with Audit Logs for comprehensive tracking and is the foundation for future agent-centric development tools.

Introduced Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for Team and Enterprise plans, leveraging Environments as secure access boundaries. Implemented Restricted Environments where access to deploy, create, or manage resources is limited to explicitly assigned users or agents. Enhanced security by restricting workspace member visibility, log and secret access, and cross-environment lookups within Restricted Environments. This feature is built on a new production-ready permissions architecture.
