Behind the Build: How to Run Prod with Background Agents
Resolve started with on-call agents that triage every alert and run deep root-cause analysis, then scaled to full incident response. Background agents are the next step: owning the steady-state work of keeping prod healthy that usually falls through the cracks.

What you'll learn
Beyond triage and incident response
Where background work fits into the steady-state toil of running prod, once on-call triage and incident response are already covered.
How a background agent works
A persistent cloud lifecycle that stands by when idle, a sandboxed filesystem so nothing in flight is lost, and memory that self-compacts over time.
The work agents can own
Deploy monitoring, P99 and regression investigation, recurring health checks, and the daily incident digest nobody has time to write.
A live demo
A background agent watching a production deployment and stepping in only when it actually matters.
