Agents
GitLab's Merge Request Agents Have Two Owners
GitLab 19.4 (17 September) made per-user credit caps GA and added a trigger that starts an agent flow on every new merge request. Triggered flows run under a composite identity, a human plus a service account, and the docs never say whose cap they count against. Fire one test trigger, read the per-event export, and treat the subscription cap as the real ceiling.
