# August 8

We've been busy. Here's everything that landed recently - from a platform-wide reorganization to a long list of new integrations.

## <i class="fa-diagram-project">:diagram-project:</i> A New Shape for the Platform

We've restructured QORE into three clear spaces, each built around what you're actually trying to do:

* [Build](/start-here/studio.md) - where you create apps, agents, and knowledge from the ground up.
* **Run** - where those apps and agents actually run and get used (*this space is still a work in progress - more coming soon*).
* [Govern (Control Center)](/start-here/control-center.md) - where you keep watch over everything: governance, traceability, and observability into how your apps and agents are behaving.

```
Think of it as:
Build → Run → Govern
create it, use it, keep an eye on it. 
```

This is just the first step - these three spaces will keep evolving with every release.

* [Cost control features](/governance/billing.md). We've started rolling out platform-wide cost controls, including auto-unpublishing inactive Dev/QA apps and cost visibility at build time for both apps and agents — more on this below.
* [Team-level access definition](/governance/account-settings.md). You can now define access at the team level, making it easier to control who can see and do what across the platform.
* [Platform-level analytics](/governance/observability.md). A new account-level analytics view shows overall usage across all your apps and agents, giving you a single place to see how the platform is being used.

### <i class="fa-hammer">:hammer:</i> App Builder

* [Import external JS apps](/app-builder/creating-and-importing-apps.md). You can now import external JavaScript-based apps built on any other platform, including direct imports from GitLab and GitHub.
* [Scan & assessment report on import](/app-builder/creating-and-importing-apps.md). When you import an external app, we now run a scanning and assessment report first, so you know what you're bringing in before it becomes part of your build.
* [Auto-generated data flow diagrams](/app-builder/build/data-flow.md). Every app now gets an auto-generated data flow diagram (powered by Mermaid), so you can visualize how data moves through your app without drawing it yourself.
* [DB Explorer view](/app-builder/build/db-explorer.md). You've always had a managed DB — now you can actually see it. A new DB Explorer view lets you browse your database directly.
* [Auto testcase generation & AI-assisted fixes](/app-builder/testing.md). Test cases are now auto-generated, test runs happen automatically, and if something breaks, AI can help fix it.
* [Security scanning with AI fixes](/app-builder/security-scans.md). Apps are scanned for security issues, and AI can help you resolve what it finds.
* [Failure log visibility on publish](/app-builder/deploy.md). Failure logs are now visible right when an app publish fails — and AI can help you fix the issue on the spot.
* [Headless App Builder MCP](/app-builder/creating-and-importing-apps.md). A headless App Builder MCP is now available, so you can build apps directly from Claude or any coding platform you prefer — no need to switch context.
* [Mobile backend support + store-ready packaging](/app-builder/build.md). Mobile app development now supports backend integration, and we've made improvements to get your app package much closer to Android Play Store–ready.
* [Agent conversation history in apps](/app-builder/app-workspace.md). When an agent is integrated into an app, its conversation history can now be shown within the app, depending on the use case.
* [Auto-unpublish on Dev/QA after 5 hours](/app-builder/operate.md). In line with our ongoing cost-control efforts, apps on Dev and QA environments will now auto-unpublish after 5 hours of inactivity.
* [In-app and unified app analytics](/app-builder/analytics.md). In-app analytics is now available, alongside a unified app analytics view in the Control Center.
* [App build-time cost visibility](/app-builder/operate.md). App build-time cost visibility has been added, so you know what you're spending before you even publish.

### <i class="fa-robot">:robot:</i> Agent Builder

* [Agent build-time cost visibility](/governance/billing.md). Agent build-time cost visibility is now available.
* [Cost control for runaway/looping agents](/agent-builder/build/agent-behavior.md). New cost control mechanisms kick in if an agent starts looping or spiraling out of control, keeping runaway costs in check.
* [Online evals for deployed agents](/agent-builder/monitor/online-eval.md). The Control Center now includes online evals, so you can test your agents even after they've been deployed.
* [Agent analytics with action traceback](/agent-builder/monitor.md). Agent analytics now shows a complete traceback of agent actions — bringing the observability we previously relied on OPIK for, natively into the platform.
* **Improved knowledge pipeline.** The knowledge pipeline has been improved — and there's more on the way.

### <i class="fa-plug">:plug:</i> New Integrations

We've added a wave of [new integrations](/integrations/integrations-hub.md) to help QORE connect with the tools you already use. Most have been fully tested with dev credentials; a few are pending real-world credentials for full validation:

{% hint style="success" icon="rocket-launch" %}
As always, this is just the beginning—the Build, Run, and Govern spaces will keep growing with each release.

*Thanks for building with us!*
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.uptiq.ai/release-notes/2026/august-8.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
