Summary
The Automox agent is the execution engine for the platform: it runs the policies and automations you schedule in the console on macOS, Windows, and Linux, then reports endpoint state back. Engineers Tyler Schmidtke, who manages the agent team, and Carson Grogg, the software engineer in test for the agent and backend, draw a clear line between Automox and endpoint detection and response. The Automox agent operates in user space with no kernel-space components, so it cannot crash a system during the startup sequence. Carson walks through the testing and phased release process that moves a new agent build from dev to staging to a staged production rollout, and Tyler hints at agent updates landing over the coming year.
