## Agent safety answer

railway manages Railway projects, services, variables, and deployments.

- **Credential access:** Reads Railway tokens, project links, and environment variable data.
- **Remote mutation:** Can deploy, change variables, and mutate hosted services.
- **Publish/artifact risk:** Publishes application builds and deployment state.
- **Recommended control:** Gate deploy, variable, service, and token commands.
- **Agent-use guidance:** Allow status reads; require approval for deploys, variable changes, and service mutations.
