• Updated Ruby agent installation to simplify installation to three steps, and split the Ruby agent configuration settings into topic pages so you can find options by category.
• Removed the CodeStream docs following its November 5, 2026 end of life, rewrote the agent code-level metrics pages to remove CodeStream references, and added redirects so existing links continue to work.
• Updated New Relic Ground Truth with a section on how to secure MCP access, including revoking OAuth tokens and auditing sign-in activity with NrAuditEvent.

• Updated AWS Lambda actions in the workflow automation actions catalog with concrete example values for output fields, including sample error messages and API response objects.
• Updated Manage monitor runtimes with the Node.js 22.23.4 runtime and its supported third-party modules.

Minor changes

• Updated Browser: JavaScript errors tab to rename Errors (errors inbox) to JavaScript errors.
