Agentic developer loop

Area: Developer tools. Status: GA. Developer relevance: high. Airtime: 1 min across 1 video, demoed.

Status evidence

  • Nothing said about status; launch event convention: generally available unless stated otherwise.

Where they talk about it

Quotes

  • 2:00 "understand the source, collect evidence from the real environment, and use that evidence to explain and fix the problem." - Defines the agentic developer loop that the whole session is built around.

Prerequisites mentioned

  • Business Central MCP server
  • AL tool as local proxy
  • ALSP

Documented features match

  • Profile slow Business Central sessions with AI agents - low confidence (llm). Docs say: General availability, roadmap id 573335. Combines profiling and debugging agents
  • Product documentation (partial, the article describes the broader feature or mentions this in passing): AI agent tools for AL development, checked 2026-10-02. AI agent tools enable GitHub Copilot and any MCP-compatible AI agent to perform core Business Central development tasks, including debugging AL extensions. Note: Describes the tool surfaces (VS Code tools, AL MCP, LSP), not the understand-capture-measure-fix loop. Related: Troubleshooting MCP Server for AL (wave 1).

Docs checked on 2026-10-02: the match is against Microsoft's what's new pages for the wave as they were on that date. Microsoft keeps filling the documentation, so "no documented item" can go stale.
