_The sphinx is an Egyptian guardian of knowledge that tested travelers with a riddle before they could pass._

This release lets you watch a run while it executes, resolve service credentials by name at run time, create a credential without leaving the designer, and choose Claude Opus 5 plus Amazon Nova 2 Lite and Nova Micro.

## <span style="color: #16a34a">NEW</span>

### <span style="color: #16a34a">Watch a run while it executes</span>

You can now follow a flow as it runs: the designer stays on the live execution, steps update as they finish, and you can cancel without waiting for the log to catch up. Execution logs sit next to the step configuration, so you can compare inputs, settings, and results in one place while you debug. Open **Logs** after the run if you need the stored record.

<div class="docs-screenshot-compact">

</div>

For more details, see [Inspect flow logs](../../guides/operate/logs/).

### <span style="color: #16a34a">Look up a credential by name at run time</span>

On a services step, choose **Credential Lookup** and set a credential name (constant or formula). Mindflow resolves that name in the current environment and Global scope when the step runs, so one deployment can use a different stored credential per run.

<div class="docs-screenshot-compact">

</div>

For more details, see [Look up service credentials by name at runtime](../../guides/build/reach-out-to-services/dynamic-credential-lookup/).

### <span style="color: #16a34a">Create a credential from the designer</span>

When a step needs a credential that is not in the environment yet, you can create it from the credential picker and keep designing. You no longer have to leave the flow to open environment settings first.

<div class="docs-screenshot-compact">

</div>

For more details, see [Create and manage credentials](../../getting-started/credentials/).

### <span style="color: #16a34a">Favorite flows and environments</span>

You can now mark flows and environments as favorites so they stay pinned under **Favorites** in the sidebar. Star a flow from the Flows list (or the designer) and an environment from the environment switcher to open them without hunting through the full list.

<div class="docs-screenshot-compact">

</div>

For more details, see [Flows and agents](../../getting-started/flows-and-agents/).

### <span style="color: #16a34a">Sign OAuth2 tokens with a client certificate</span>

OAuth2 credentials can now authenticate with `private_key_jwt`: Mindflow signs the client assertion with your certificate instead of sending a client secret. Use this when the token endpoint requires certificate-based client authentication.

### <span style="color: #16a34a">New Claude and Amazon models</span>

You can now select Claude Opus 5, Amazon Nova 2 Lite, and Amazon Nova Micro in AI··Task and other model pickers. Pick the model that matches the work: Opus 5 for long-horizon reasoning, Nova 2 Lite for multimodal automation, and Nova Micro when you need a fast, low-cost text model.

<div class="docs-screenshot-compact">

## <span style="color: #fb923c">CHANGES</span>

### <span style="color: #fb923c">Add-step catalog follows your credentials</span>

The add-step menu now emphasizes services you can actually call: integrations with an environment credential (and your favorites) show up first. You spend less time scrolling past services that are not connected yet.

For more details, see [Call native integrations](../../guides/build/reach-out-to-services/call-native-integrations/).

### <span style="color: #fb923c">See how a model is routed</span>

When you pick an Amazon model, Studio now shows how inference is routed (for example the regional profile). Use this when you need to confirm which path a model call will take.

<div class="docs-screenshot-compact">

</div>

### <span style="color: #fb923c">Organization events in audit export</span>

Organization create, update, and delete actions now appear when you export audit logs. Org admins who export logs for a SIEM or retention pipeline get those events with the rest of the organization history.

For more details, see [Export audit logs](../../guides/govern/administrating-the-platform/exporting-logs/).

### <span style="color: #fb923c">Analytics includes AI usage</span>

The organization Analytics dashboard now includes AI usage alongside flow volume and outcomes. Org admins can review that usage on the same Analytics page.

<div class="docs-screenshot-compact">
