The new Explorer tab supports opening Fluent files and viewing underlying Fluent source code. * **Advanced Source Control:** Upgraded source control with expanded Git commands improves app development and version management. * **Collections for Organization:** Users can create collections to organize frequently used apps, files, and lists, extending bookmark functionality and supporting multi-scope content. * **App Deployment Integration:** Deployment requests and update set attachments are now managed directly within ServiceNow Studio, streamlining app deployment workflows. * **AI-Powered Development:** Build Agent enables conversational app creation and editing, including spec mode for generating implementation plans. The Studio UI supports personalization with options like pro, vibe mode, or custom layouts. * **UI Builder Integration:** UI Builder components and related assets can be added directly to apps within Studio. * **Agentic Architecture for App Summary:** App summary generation now leverages an AI agent orchestration model, requiring administrator activation but maintaining the same user experience. * **Updated User Interface:** Navigator panel icons were refined, and preferences/settings were relocated to improve usability. ## Key Changes * **Branding Update:** ServiceNow Otto is the new AI experience brand affecting product names, including Studio, without changing entitlements. * **Build Agent Default:** Build Agent is the default AI-assisted app generation tool; users can toggle it via preferences. * **Preview Mode Improvements:** Files with preview capability open directly in preview mode, reducing steps and maintaining developer focus. * **Tab Management:** Integrated tab groupings no longer use color-coding or scope grouping; a list of open files is accessible via the Show Opened Editors option. * **Management of Changes:** Update sets and source control changes display together in the Changes tab, allowing simultaneous use and clear tracking. * **Deployment Tab Relocation:** The Deployment tab moved from the home page to the activity bar for better accessibility. ## Removals and Deprecations * **Experience Switcher Removed:** No direct replacement; individual applications remain accessible via the AI Platform. * **Tools Tab Removed:** No replacement; documentation is available through integrated development tools. * **Create Menu Removed:** The top-right Create menu was removed; the activity bar Create option remains functional. * **Resources Section Removed:** No replacement; Build Agent chat can be used to access resources. * **Pre-VS Code Studio Versions Deprecated:** Only the VS Code replatformed version of Studio is supported; disabling Build Agent no longer reverts to the old version. ## Upgrade and Activation Notes ServiceNow Studio is active by default as a feature of the ServiceNow AI Platform in both Australia and Brazil releases.

This change moves the App summary generation from a skill-based architecture to the AI agent orchestration model.

An administrator must enable the agent in AI Agent Studio before users can generate application summaries. The end-user experience remains the same.
