Abstract

Agentic cloud management is emerging as a practice to automate laborious operations, minimize toil, and improve responsiveness. Despite the rapid development of autonomous management agents, we argue that the fundamental missing piece is a systems foundation to enable safe, effective operations across agents and between agents and human operators. In this paper, we advocate for the need of such a systems foundation and share our efforts on developing CloudWeaver, an agentic management substrate that works across existing cloud-user interfaces and future agent-native interfaces. Specifically, we discuss how CloudWeaver (1) scopes the context of individual agent sessions with local views of cloud resources and (2) coordinates concurrent management operations on shared cloud resources. CloudWeaver offers strong safety guarantees and attributable feedback in the presence of conflicting intents, while preserving concurrency between independent operations. We validate CloudWeaver using a representative Azure API workload.
