Install the agent plugin

For citizen developers

Your coding agent talks to Greenlight through a plugin. You install the plugin once; after that, every app you build with the agent automatically uses Greenlight to deploy, connect to data, and pass the policy check.

What happens after install

The plugin gives your agent access to Greenlight’s tools — registering new apps, opening pull requests, reading context, deploying, calling data systems through the broker. You don’t need to remember anything specific about which tools exist. Your agent does that.

You sign in once. Your agent inherits your identity for everything it does in Greenlight: every action is logged as you. There’s no separate “agent account” running with permissions you don’t have.

Tip

If your organization uses several coding agents, you can install the Greenlight plugin in each of them — they all connect to the same install and act as the same you.
