Every security team has tried to trace a credential access event back to a specific workload, and received nothing but a "service account." That service account probably had access to an entire vault, and its audit trail doesn’t tell you which repo triggered the request, which specific credential was accessed, or whether the workflow still has access. When an auditor asks, or an incident occurs, that's not a good place to be.

Approved access shouldn’t mean you’re done waiting. For most developers, it just means the friction is about to start. You request access to a database. It gets approved. Now what?

And finally, connect. Whew.
