🤖 Smarter Project Manager Agents with Work Visibility

Coordinating autonomous and human work requires complete visibility into who owns what. In v1.104.2, Project Manager (PM) agents gain access to the new list_assigned_work capability.

• Holistic Work Inspection: PM agents can query assigned plans and tasks across projects for any team member (human or agent) in a single turn.
• Balanced Workloads & Ownership: Instead of guessing availability from partial project context, agents can inspect open work, track dependencies, and assign new tasks to the right person or specialized agent.
• Streamlined Multi-Agent Delegation: Bridges high-level project goals with task-level execution across hybrid teams.

🎯 Automated Customer Engagement & Lead Progression

Customer conversations move quickly, and sales teams need immediate context when prospects respond. Version 1.104.2 and v1.104.1 bring powerful automation to customer communication pipelines:

• Automatic "Engaged" Lead Tagging: When a lead responds to an email, SMS, or chat, Kanvas automatically tags the lead as engaged, instantly updating visibility across dashboards and alerting reps to high-intent opportunities.
• Automated Pipeline Progression (v1.104.1): Agents can now automatically advance leads to the next pipeline stage after qualifying outreach occurs, dynamically recalculating follow-up intervals based on the new stage.
• Smarter Contextual Follow-Ups: Follow-up cadence automatically aligns with company configurations, pipeline stages, and quiet hours, ensuring timely and compliant communications.
• Auto-Provisioned Conversation Channels: Kanvas now automatically opens social/messaging channels the moment a contact is saved or a lead is created, ensuring full conversational context is preserved from day one.

📁 Salesforce Project Synchronization & Seamless Agent File Reuse

Connecting operational projects with enterprise CRM records has never been easier:

• Salesforce Project Ingestion: Kanvas now supports importing projects directly from Salesforce, expanding enterprise data synchronization beyond standard leads, contacts, and accounts into end-to-end operational project tracking.
• Native File Reuse via filesystem_id: Agents can now attach documents and files already stored in Kanvas using their existing filesystem_id. Rather than re-uploading documents or relying on brittle external URLs, agents can seamlessly link briefs, invoices, and spec sheets across tasks and channels.

🚗 SalesAssist Enhancements & Console MCP Integration

For automotive and commerce teams, SalesAssist receives notable upgrades in this release:

• Trade-in & Vehicle-of-Interest Tracking: Critical trade-in values and vehicle preferences are automatically logged as structured notes within the lead's default conversation channel.
• SalesAssist Console MCP Integration: Expands Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectivity, enabling agents and external consoles to query and interact with SalesAssist data through standardized MCP tool servers.

🚀 Additional Improvements & Platform Reliability

• Slack History & Observability: Upgraded Slack thread synchronization and agent engagement reporting for richer audit trails.
• Platform Performance: Ongoing optimizations across queue processing, event listeners, and agent turn latency following the Neuron AI v4 engine rollout.
