Agent readiness: fix the repos slowing your rollout
Blog post from Factory
Factory’s Agent Readiness framework assesses how repository structure, validation practices, documentation, security scanning, and operational signals affect coding agents’ ability to work autonomously, emphasizing actionable engineering gaps rather than adoption scores. Organizations are advised to evaluate active repositories and individual applications within monorepos, using maturity levels as a shared framework while targeting Level 3, Standardized, which includes enforced processes, end-to-end tests, maintained documentation, security scanning, and observability. Readiness does not replace authorization controls or grant production access, and teams should convert findings into reviewed, validated changes such as documented test commands and reproducible local checks. Platform teams can track remediation across repositories, assign ownership, and measure practical outcomes including setup reliability, validation success, and reduced reviewer intervention, while avoiding superficial changes intended only to improve scores.
