WorkOS: ‘Agents Need Context. Ship the Integrations That Give It to Them.’

WorkOS launched Pipes, a new integration platform that connects AI agents to third-party tools like GitHub, Slack, Salesforce, and Google Drive. The service handles OAuth flows, token refresh, and credential storage, enabling agents to access real-time context from users' everyday applications without requiring developers to build custom plumbing for each integration.

My thanks to WorkOS for once again sponsoring DF last week. The context that actually matters isn’t in your database. It’s in the tools your users live in every day. Multi-stage agents stall the moment they hit a step they can’t see. And every missing integration is a different OAuth flow, a different token lifecycle, weeks of plumbing before the agent reads a single record. WorkOS Pipes https://workos.com/blog/workos-pipes-third-party-integrations?utm source=daringfireball&utm medium=newsletter&utm campaign=q22026&utm content=product name link connects your agent to the tools your users live in. Pre-built connectors for GitHub, Slack, Salesforce, Google Drive, and more. Pipes handles OAuth, token refresh, and credential storage. You call the real provider API with a fresh token, every time. Your agent pulls context at every step, for as long as the task runs.
