# Agentic Studio: Release notes

{% updates format="full" %}
{% update date="2026-04-30" %}

## Highlights

* **What shipped:** MetaPrompter, ADLC enhancements (build flow + template import/export), marketplace/templates, and evaluation + regression testing
* **Why it matters:** Improves predictability and testability of Digital Workers, accelerates iteration on instructions and configurations, and strengthens confidence for production rollouts
* **Who benefits:** Builders and operators of Digital Workers who need consistent outputs, faster iteration, and higher-confidence releases

## New features

### Usability

<summary><a href="/spaces/RIbp8Kp04VLXld01gmAs/pages/r7rXxvhbjtupu3mr1Ju5"><strong>Agent Development Lifecycle (ADLC)</strong></a></summary>

*This release delivers new and enhanced capabilities for building and managing Digital Worker (DW) templates, deployment, testing, and versioning. The Agentic Studio now provides:*

* Enhanced Digital worker build flow
  * Guided build flow for Digital Workers: Create → Instructions → Tools → Skills → Triggers → Settings
  * Instructions as the core control plane: define persona/role, context, guardrails, tool usage, response structure, and multi-step reasoning
  * Tool management is simplified, with connector-based standard tools and custom tool creation as needed
  * Skills as reusable reasoning patterns (prompt, reasoning, and domain skills) to standardize high-quality outputs
* Import/Export of Digital Workers
  * Export as Template workflow with guided checklist (e.g., overview → integrations → branding & metadata → review & export) to make installations predictable and secure
  * Export summary provides an at-a-glance inventory of what’s included (e.g., number of skills, tools, and triggers) and allows editing the system description shown to installers
  * Clear scoping during export: exporting affects the template package only (does not modify the live system)
  * Marketplace import includes an install readiness checklist and surfaces required integrations/connectors that must be configured before the agent can be installed

<summary><a href="/spaces/RIbp8Kp04VLXld01gmAs/pages/d0VLpt2W3srGP7JJucEd#how-to-find-and-use-the-marketplace"><strong>Marketplace &#x26; Templates</strong></a></summary>

* New marketplace experience to discover industrial AI agents and deploy enterprise-grade solutions
* Browse and filter by categories (e.g., Quality Control, Predictive Maintenance, Automation, Supply Chain, Safety & Compliance, Process Optimization, Operations, Logistics)
* Search across agents, categories, and features; preview and view agent details before deployment
* Agent cards highlight key signals such as ratings, last-updated date, usage/downloads, and badges (e.g., Trending, Popular, New, Stable)

<summary><a href="/spaces/RIbp8Kp04VLXld01gmAs/pages/NcFFai8PHeeB3hSilGjm"><strong>MetaPrompter</strong></a></summary>

* Scope (Q1 2026): available for **editing existing Agents** only
* Interactive prompt designer that generates structured instructions
* Enforces state-based output formats for consistent, predictable behavior
* Supports iterative instruction updates to accommodate customer-specific rule changes without code

</details>

### Memory Management

<details>

<summary><strong>Long-term memory per entity (Memory maps)</strong></summary>

* Dual-path memory initialization: combine continuous entity-specific learning with optional user-defined Rule Books for bootstrapping
* Captures learnings from HITL feedback to evolve instructions and long-term memory over time
* Designed to improve resilience to variable inputs (e.g., changing document formats and incomplete data)

</details>

### Monitoring

<details>

<summary><strong>Dashboards</strong></summary>

* Digital Worker Activity overview with trend charts and KPI tiles (e.g., total events, HITL conversations, total tests)
* Current Activity snapshot (active Digital Workers, active conversations)
* Flow monitoring with completion visibility (Digital Worker flows and close rate)
* Leaderboards for operational triage (Top Digital Workers; HITL conversations by agent)
* Governance/quality surfaces (Eval failures) and cost visibility (token usage by agent)

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Evals</strong></summary>

* Dataset-based eval runs with scorecards across key dimensions (Accuracy, Relevance, Helpfulness), plus operational metrics (tests run, success rate, failures, average latency)
* Per-test-case drill-down: view the agent plan, conversation transcript, and detailed rubric scoring with reasoning to support faster debugging and iteration
* Run history tracking to compare results over time and spot regressions

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Regression testing</strong></summary>

* Organize tests into datasets with individual test cases and pass/fail status tracking
* Run history captures when an eval was executed and by whom, making it easier to compare runs and detect regressions
* Performance signals included alongside quality (e.g., per-test latency and average runtime) to catch speed/timeout failures early

</details>

### Additional notes

<details>

<summary><strong>Improvements</strong></summary>

* Deterministic intent based agent output
* Predictable responses for machine interaction (schema/state-based output normalization)
* MS Teams Adaptive cards support

</details>

<details>

<summary><strong>Security &#x26; compliance</strong></summary>

* None
