Blog post from Port
Port’s July 2026 release expands its agentic software-development platform with Port AI Builder, which can plan and execute approved catalog changes, create blueprints and dashboards, upsert entities, and trigger workflows through Ask, Plan, and Build modes with configurable approval controls. The release also adds AI-guided onboarding, MCP-based dashboard management, inline integration installation, live reasoning visibility, coding-agent plugins, and “Implement with AI” actions across documentation. Workflow enhancements include cron scheduling, delegated ownership and permissions, UI-versus-API execution policies, dynamic JQ-based prompts, dashboard workflow cards, setup checklists, and API conflict protection. Port introduced Survey Intelligence for building and analyzing engineering surveys based on frameworks such as SPACE, DORA, and AI adoption, while new integrations and plugins support Claude Managed Agents, GitHub Copilot usage analytics, AWS GovCloud resources, and one-click public plugin installation. Additional updates improve self-service SSO, integration monitoring and resync controls, infrastructure-as-code customization of entity pages, organization settings navigation, scalable synchronization processing, and flexible AI assistant layouts.
