​
For Administrators

Workspace Navigation: Your workspace panel now opens automatically when you enter the admin. You can still collapse it if needed, and your preference persists across sessions. Chat History Search: Look for the search icon in the chat top bar to jump between your current session and past conversations. The history view makes it easy to find earlier work without losing your place. Quick Actions on Entities: When editing a challenge, reward, or achievement, look for the quick actions menu next to the entity name. Generate a badge for an achievement, write criteria with AI help, or analyze challenge progress — all without leaving the form. Template Management: Use the “Exact Copy” option when duplicating a challenge template. This creates a complete replica with all your design settings intact.

​
For Developers & Integrators

MCP Tool Improvements: Tool outcome rendering now provides clearer feedback on what tools did. If you’re building custom tool integrations, the improved result formatting should help users understand tool actions better. Shopify Harness Validation: The Shopify harness now runs earlier in the PR process (on label requests) for faster feedback on Shopify integration changes.
