Features ✅

  • Agent-assisted research – Added multi-step research capabilities for questions that require more than a single model response.
  • Dataset-aware research – Lucid can use selected datasets as part of a research task rather than treating every question as generic web research.
  • Source controls – Added clearer ways to define which available sources and connected services should contribute to an analysis.
  • Expanded model routing – Improved how Lucid selects and works with different models depending on the type of research being performed.

Improvements 🧱

  • More deliberate research workflows – Improved the distinction between direct answers, deeper research and work requiring multiple steps.
  • Better source architecture – Strengthened how selected datasets, web research and connected services flow through the Assistant.
  • Clearer Signals setup – Refined how monitoring prompts communicate what to track, what should matter and which information sources are relevant.
  • Improved entity understanding – Continued strengthening recognition of people, organisations and other entities across research.

Fixes 🔧

  • Fixed model-routing issues caused by retired or unavailable model versions.
  • Improved fallback behaviour when a preferred research path could not be used.
  • Fixed inconsistencies between selected sources and sources available to downstream research.
  • Strengthened reliability around long-running agent-assisted requests.
