What is new in Nomain, newest first. Each entry links to the full notes for that release.
July 21 to August 20, 2026
A larger release than usual, headlined by Nomain Code, a coding agent in the VS Code extension, now rolling out to selected users.
Highlights
- Nomain Code: a coding agent in VS Code. The extension's chat can plan and make code changes, grounded in what Nomain knows about your Systems. Every edit and every command goes through your review before it touches a file. Rolling out to selected users, with expanded availability in the coming releases.
- Easytrieve joins the language family. Easytrieve programs and macros are recognized, parsed and connected to the rest of your estate, including the JCL job steps that invoke them.
- Answers from deep inside your documents. Document search now reaches full document content passage by passage, not just the summary.
- Run analyses with more control. Retry a failed step, cancel a running analysis and see the real reason a step failed, with honest Queued and Running states.
- Chat usage, measured. Usage Insights adds a chat token consumption dashboard, org-wide for admins and per user.

July 17 to July 20, 2026
A focused update: scan connected repositories for committed secrets, and get more reliable chat answers.
Highlights
- Secret scanning in connected repositories. Turn it on per repository and Nomain scans the downloaded code for committed secrets and masks any it finds before analysis runs, so secrets never reach the analyzed code, the graph, or the chat agent. A finding marks the analysis step with a new Alert status without stopping the run.
- More reliable chat answers. Answers no longer come back empty or half-formed, and a streaming answer now recovers if the model connection drops mid-reply.

June 26 to July 3, 2026
A shorter week focused on two themes: new ways to work with your systems (richer system cards, uploading your own documents, seeing what the agent remembers about you), and a handful of important accuracy fixes across COBOL analysis, execution statistics, and usage insights.
Highlights
- A redesigned Systems dashboard. Every system now shows the essentials at a glance: how many business processes, programs, and jobs it contains, its size in lines of code, the languages it uses, and a one-click link to its analysis history.
- See what the agent remembers about you. A new Memory screen lets you review, edit, or delete anything the chat agent has noted down about you or your work.
- Add your own documents to a system. Alongside the code, you can now upload Markdown, PDF, and Word documents to a system, and the platform analyzes them together with everything else.
- A COBOL accuracy fix. An old bug caused parts of every conditional block (IF, EVALUATE, and similar) to be stored twice, which could occasionally lead the chat agent to answer from code that does not actually exist. It is fixed, and every COBOL system refreshes automatically on its next analysis.

June 10 to 26, 2026
A two-week round of improvements: broader and more accurate mainframe coverage, a smoother and more resilient chat experience, faster searches, and a clearer view of long-running analyses.
Highlights
- "Knowledge Graph" is now "Systems." We renamed the central concept to reflect what it really represents: a structured model of one of your systems, drawn from its code, JCL, copybooks, and documentation.
- Multi-repository systems. A single system can now be built from several source repositories, with per-repository scoping rules.
- Persistent agent memory. The chat agent now remembers what you have told it (your role, your preferences, project context) from one conversation to the next.
- Documentation in the conversation. The agent can now find and quote from your ingested documents (Markdown and PDF), and surfaces a single, deduplicated glossary alongside results.
- Streaming that survives a hiccup. Chat answers no longer get lost if you switch tabs, move between the webapp and the VS Code extension mid-stream, briefly lose the network, or we deploy a new version.
- Self-serve single sign-on. Tenant administrators can set up SSO themselves from the Account screen.
