Read Upgrade Notes before you upgrade.
What’s New
Multi-agent orchestration
- Goal decomposition — agents break a goal into sub-goals, tasks, and actions for better planning.
- Supervisor mode — a supervisor agent assigns tasks to other agents and handles fallback when one fails.
- Peer-to-peer mode — agents coordinate with each other to complete a task.
- Shared state — agents share a summary or the full state of the work with each other.
- Human in the Loop — approval steps for agent actions.
- Set / Get Variable — store and read values while an agent flow runs.
Access control
- Resource-level permissions — control access to individual agents, chatbots, voice agents, knowledge bases, MCPs, tools, guardrails, datasets, and evaluations.
- Sharing — resource owners can share resources with workspace members. Workspace Admins keep access to everything.
- Agent policies — define which tools and memory an agent can use at run time.
- Existing resources receive permissions automatically during the upgrade.
MCP and tools
- OAuth for MCP servers — connect securely to third-party MCP servers.
- Redesigned MCP catalog — browse and manage local and global MCPs.
- Permissions for MCPs and tools — share MCPs and tools at resource level.
- New tools — browser use with screenshots and PDF reports, natural-language database queries (NL2SQL), Perplexity search, image generation, chart generation, PDF report generation, and code execution.
Channels
- One agent, many channels — an agent can hold conversations across several channels, and send outbound messages to a list of recipients.
- New channels — Outlook, Zoho, and Zalo (multiple bots, OAuth, and media).
- Agent Schedule — run an agent on a recurring schedule.
- Microsoft Teams — Adaptive Card improvements and file attachments.
Memory
- Long-term memory — agents remember across sessions.
- Memory settings — configure and manage an agent’s memory from the builder.
Voice agents
- Voice in NeoGPT — talk to voice agents from NeoGPT.
- Smoother conversations — filler audio while the agent prepares a response.
- Latency analytics — detailed timing for Twilio and ElevenLabs.
Platform
- Branding — choose images, text, and colours for white-label deployments.
- HashiCorp Vault — manage secrets with HashiCorp Vault across the platform.
- Agent versioning and import / export — keep versions of an agent and move workflows between workspaces.
- Meeting transcription — a bot that joins meetings and transcribes them.
Improvements
- Playground scrolling and auto-scroll work correctly.
- Trace details break down observations and the execution flow.
- NeoGPT thread list has pagination and search.
- Filter LLMs by capability and region when choosing a model in the Agent component.
- Filter LLM traces by deployed agent version.
- Faster agent runs with prompt caching, and faster loading of the Analytics page.
- Sessions last longer before you are signed out.
Security
- Members removed from a workspace lose access to its credentials, evaluations, guardrails, datasets, variables, and integrations.
- Platform dependencies are updated to resolve reported vulnerabilities.
Upgrade Notes
Database migrations : This release includes migrations for resource permissions, guardrail, evaluation, and dataset mappings, and long-term memory. Run all migrations in order before you start the services.
Admin role removed : The Admin role no longer exists. Use Workspace Admin instead.
Super Admin workspaces : A workspace is no longer created automatically for a Super Admin. Review your onboarding steps.
HashiCorp Vault : Configure the Vault endpoint and token in workspace secrets before you use the Vault integration.
