Factory

Connect Factory to delegate autofix implementation to Factory droids. Polylane investigates and proposes the fix; a droid implements it on a Factory managed computer and pushes the pull request. Bring your own Factory API access.

Setup

1. In Factory, go to Settings → API keys and create an API key (it starts with fk-).
2. Make sure the Factory organization's GitHub connection has access to your target repositories.
3. Paste the key into Polylane.

Connecting makes Factory the executor for every autofix the workspace creates. To route autofixes back through the Polylane executor, turn off Use Factory for all autofixes on the Factory integration page in Settings.

Your key is encrypted before it is stored, and the agent never sees it. Your Factory plan must include API and remote workspace access.

Give droids Polylane's MCP tools

Droids can query Polylane directly (incidents, the infra graph, observability) over MCP while implementing a fix. Create an API key in Polylane under Settings → Coding agents (one click, every read scope the MCP tools check), then commit .factory/mcp.json to the repository:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "polylane": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.polylane.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

Disconnecting

Disconnect Factory in Polylane, then revoke the API key in Factory.
