Octopus Deploy's new 'Run Claude Agent' step lets teams automatically assess commit risk at deploy time using AI. By linking Build Information (which associates commits with deployments) to a Claude agent prompt, Octopus can analyze commit content via the GitHub MCP server and score changes across categories like security, dependencies, and business logic. Low-risk deployments proceed automatically, while high-risk ones trigger a manual intervention step. The tutorial walks through setting up the project, configuring API keys, building a Docker execution container with the Claude CLI, and demonstrating both low-risk and high-risk deployment scenarios.
