# 2025.10.16

> 2025.10.16 release notes for Studio.

**Release date: August 6, 2026**

## Improvements

### Switching between the Autopilot Agent and the previous Autopilot panel

Previously, the Autopilot panel presented only the **Autopilot Agent** chat. The earlier card-based panel — which grouped documentation search, workflow error fixing, and the **Healing Agent** as separate cards — had been removed, leaving no way to return to it. That panel is available again as an alternative, with the **Autopilot Agent** chat remaining the default experience and the panel being opt-in.

The setting that switches between the two experiences is available in the Autopilot panel's settings menu. The chat also displays a dismissible banner linking to it, and the dismissal persists across project reopens. While the panel is active, it shows an **Autopilot chat** card with a **Switch to chat** button. Switching takes effect immediately without restarting Studio, and the choice is stored per user.

### Activity package documentation for AI coding assistants

Activity packages can now ship documentation that Studio surfaces inside the project folder, giving AI coding assistants used alongside Studio context about the packages a project depends on. Package authors place documentation files under `content/docs/` in the package, in any structure — Markdown, text, or other files are copied as-is.

After a package restore (on project open or reload, and when packages are installed, updated, or removed), Studio mirrors each package's `docs/` subtree to `.local/docs/packages/<PackageId>/` and writes a `.local/docs/manifest.json` recording the synced versions. Unchanged packages are skipped, folders for removed packages are deleted, and `.local/docs` is removed when no installed package ships documentation. Autopilot file operations can now also read these dot-prefixed paths.

## Bug fixes

* The bundled **Scriban** templating library has been updated from 5.5.0 to 7.2.3 to address known security vulnerabilities.
