20 agents in, we finally admitted we had no idea how many agents existed in our own company

Not exaggerating this but when we tried to do an inventory for a security review, we found agents that had been built, deployed, and forgotten by people who’d since changed teams. No owner, no docs, still running, still with production credentials. What forced the fix was less “we wanted better tooling” and more “we couldn’t answer basic questions”: which agents can access customer data, which ones are actually being used vs. abandoned, and who do we call at 2am if one starts misbehaving. An agent registry ends up needing to answer four things well: discoverability (a real catalog, not tribal knowledge), access control (who can invoke what), traces/logs (what did this agent actually do, when, on whose behalf), and basic usage metrics (is this thing even alive). Miss any one of those four and you’ve just built a prettier spreadsheet. We duct-taped an internal version together first, but then evaluated a handful of vendor options once it was clear this wasn’t going away, so we ended up on truefoundry’s agent registry since it covered all four of those without us having to keep maintaining the glue code ourselves. Not the only option out there, just the one that fit what we’d already learned we needed since.. haas anyone else faced the same? how are you managing agent inventory today
