We’ve all seen it: someone builds a small automation to fix a daily annoyance. Another team builds a different bot for a separate task. A few months later you’ve got dozens of agents — each useful on its own but nobody looking after how they work together.
That mess is called agent sprawl. It creates duplicate work, confusing handoffs, and unexpected gaps in security or compliance. A single customer can end up talking to three different agents and get three different answers. That’s frustrating — and risky.
MuleSoft Agent Fabric aims to stop that from happening. It gives teams a single place to register, connect, and control agents so they behave like parts of the same system instead of a set of disconnected tools.
Think of your business as an orchestra, not a closet of instruments. When every agent plays its own tune, the result is noise. MuleSoft Agent Fabric acts like a conductor and stage manager: it lines up the cues, prevents clashes, and keeps the show running smoothly.
Instead of reinventing the same helper for every department, teams can discover and reuse existing agents. Tasks route where they should, policies travel with the data, and engineers can trace who did what. The upshot is simple — fewer mistakes, faster fixes, and more predictable operations.
AI agents are being added at breakneck speed. That’s exciting — and dangerous when we don’t plan for scale. A missed check in a mortgage flow can delay a loan or create a compliance issue. Conflicting pricing bots can confuse customers and cost money. These aren’t abstract problems; they affect real people and real outcomes.
MuleSoft Agent Fabric gives leaders a way to move fast while staying in control. It makes agents visible and accountable, so teams can scale automation without creating new blind spots.
Salesforce has built the Fabric around four core features:
Together, these capabilities transform how enterprises manage the growing ecosystem of AI agents.
The power of MuleSoft Agent Fabric becomes clear in practical applications:
These examples highlight how orchestration prevents critical handoffs from failing and keeps processes both agile and secure.
Agent Registry, Broker, and Visualizer will be generally available in October 2025.
Agent Governance is available now.
This isn’t about replacing people with machines. It’s about giving people tools that work together and behave predictably. The companies that win will treat agents as parts of a system — instrumented, governed, and easy to coordinate.
MuleSoft Agent Fabric offers a practical path to that future. It lets teams experiment quickly while keeping audits, policies, and performance clear. In short: small, governed steps now save big headaches later.
If you want, I’ll replace these in the full article and smooth the transitions, so the tone stays consistent throughout.
