Release Notes ​

Workflow Studio: 2026-11 ​

Workflow Studio brings agent building, workflows, release control and spend control together, with prompt management and observability built in.

Agent creation ​

  • Agent builder with a guided setup for the model, behaviour, tools and capabilities.
  • Playground to test an agent on sample input before it goes anywhere.
  • Versions. Publish an agent as a numbered version, then deprecate or restore versions.
  • Published agents get a URL and keys, so other systems can call them. API keys carry their own budgets.
  • Sub-agents. An agent can lead a team of other agents.
  • Knowledge. Attach a knowledge base so the agent searches your documents before it answers.
  • Skills. Reusable guidance you add to a library, edit from the card menu, and attach to agents.
  • Tools. HTTP tools, MCP servers, Python functions and built-in common tools, each with a Try button.
  • Model settings. A blank temperature uses the model's own default. Agent steps can run for up to 30 minutes.

Instruction Manager and ARMS ​

  • Prompts are versioned and reviewed in Instruction Manager, and agents pin the approved version when published.
  • ARMS traces every agent and workflow run, with model and tool detail.
  • One sign-in across Studio, Instruction Manager and ARMS. Roles carry across, and archiving a project carries across all three.

Connectors ​

  • Composio gives you 1.5k+ tools, including Gmail, Outlook and Teams.
  • Accounts can be personal or shared across a project.
  • Use them as tools on an agent, or as an App step in a workflow.

Building workflows ​

  • Visual canvas with auto-layout, step operations and undo.
  • Steps: Agent, Condition, Python, Read documents, App and End.
  • Condition routes a run with structured rules. Only one branch is taken, and a run that matches nothing stops.
  • Python steps transform data between agents in a sandbox with no network access. Results can be up to 10 million characters.
  • Read documents reads PDFs and Word files uploaded to a run (up to 4 per run), in 20-page parts.
  • Run panel to follow each step live, and a Runs view to review past runs.
  • Run tests the draft. Publishing needs an Approver and a finished test.

Spend control ​

  • Spend view by person, agent and workflow.
  • Project and per-person budgets, custom allowances, and unblocking by admins.
  • Members' own LLM keys, and organisation-wide usage for admins.

Governance and operations ​

  • Four roles: Viewer, Author, Approver and Admin.
  • Projects can be created, renamed, archived and restored.
  • Reviews for cases a run cannot decide on its own.
  • Duplicate, download as YAML, import from a file, or copy work to another project. Folders keep it organised.

Platform and documentation ​

  • Split-screen sign-in with a product overview, and password reset by email.
  • This user manual, plus a Swagger API reference served by Studio at /api/docs.
