ISO/IEC 42001 and the Governance Gap Between Pilot and Production
In July 2025, a Replit coding agent deleted data from an application’s production database during a public experiment. The data was recovered, and Replit responded by separating development and production databases, limiting the agent’s access to the development environment, and strengthening the recovery experience. It later introduced a planning mode that allowed users to work with the agent without changing code or data.
