INTRODUCTION
This release is a governance and operations upgrade for enterprise SDLC and quality platforms. It strengthens AI assistance using enterprise knowledge sources, improves reporting and filtering for risk-based decisions, tightens admin controls for auditability, and delivers deeper pipeline observability with native GitLab CI integration. For large organizations managing complex delivery environments, these changes align the platform with how real DevSecOps and QA teams operate.
