Prompts as Code: GitHub Agentic Workflows Reshape CI/CD Governance

GitHub's Agentic Workflows blur the line between natural language instructions and infrastructure policy—prompts are now treated as durable, reviewed code that controls CI/CD behavior and resource allocation. This shift demands the same governance rigor applied to Terraform, Kubernetes, and CodeQL, fundamentally changing how organizations manage automation risk. The implication is clear: as prompts gain power to modify code and trigger deployments, they cease to be casual suggestions and become infrastructure artifacts requiring formal oversight.
