Agent status evaluation warnings are now generally available in Copilot Studio as of October 15, 2026. How does this affect me? Makers will automatically see warnings in the Review panel when an agent has never been evaluated, or if its model has changed since the most recent evaluation. These warnings help makers decide when to reevaluate an agent before continuing development or deployment. They do not block publishing. What action do I need to take? No admin action or additional configuration is required. Warnings appear automatically based on the agent’s evaluation history and model changes. When a warning appears, select Evaluate agent to open the Evaluation page and run an evaluation with the agent’s current model.
