## Agent

### Customize Agent with workspace instructions and skills

You can now teach Agent how your team works once, and have it apply everywhere. Set **custom instructions** that Agent follows in every project, and create reusable **skills** that Agent loads on demand for specific tasks. You manage both in **Workspace Settings** > **Customization**.

## Platform

### Block malicious packages with Package Firewall

Replit now blocks malicious and compromised software packages before they ever reach your app. Package Firewall checks every install across common package managers and stops harmful dependencies automatically. It is on by default, and Agent adapts its plan to use safer alternatives when something is blocked.

## Workspace

### Faster slide import and export

PowerPoint and Google Slides exports are three to ten times faster, large photo-heavy decks no longer produce oversized PDF files, and you can jump to a Google Slides export in one selection.

### Add visual references when you generate media on Canvas

When you generate an image, video, or vector graphic on Canvas, you can now attach things already on your board as visual references. Pick a frame, a note, or an image and Agent uses it to guide the result, so your generated media matches the look of your project.

<Frame caption="Open the + menu in the Generate media form to upload a file or select canvas elements.">

</Frame>

<Note>
  ChatGPT Images 2.0 does not support uploads at the moment. Switch the model, for example to Nano Banana Pro, to attach visual references.

## Security

### Choose which production alerts reach your inbox

You now control production alerts separately from other emails. A new **Production Alerts** setting decides whether Replit emails you about uptime incidents, security vulnerabilities in your dependencies, and language model updates. If a published app uses an out-of-date model, Replit also prepares a draft task so you can upgrade with one review.

<Frame caption="Find Production Alerts under Settings → Personalization → Email.">
