The following sections describe the main features and projects currently under development by the GeneXus team. They will be released in the next version of GeneXus Next and GeneXus for Agents: 2026.01.
Previews of this version will be published at the Next Preview Channel as soon as the quality and documentation are ready.
In the meantime, if you want to beta test these features, you can download GeneXus Next, including GeneXus For Agents from the GeneXus Canary Channel.
GeneXus for Agents can now keep your Knowledge Base automatically synchronized with a directory of .gx files. Whenever an object changes—whether from the IDE, an AI agent, an import, or any other process—the corresponding .gx file is updated automatically.
When an AI agent modifies an object, the IDE is also notified immediately, allowing the object tree and open editors to refresh without requiring manual actions.
Note: This feature is disabled by default in this prerelease.
How to Use
The mirroring service starts automatically when you open a Knowledge Base using the GeneXus Next CLI.
To enable the feature, add the following configuration to your settings.json (or settings-overrides.json):
{
"KBTextMirror": {
"Enabled": true,
"PollingIntervalSeconds": 2
}
}
Alternatively, configure it using environment variables:
KBTextMirror__Enabled=true
KBTextMirror__PollingIntervalSeconds=2
Once enabled
- The Knowledge Base is continuously mirrored to a directory of .gx files.
- Changes are detected regardless of their origin (IDE, AI agent, import process, or other tools).
- When an AI agent modifies an object, the IDE is automatically notified to refresh the object tree and any open editors.
The following features are still under development.
When using GeneXus for Agents, object forms are exported and imported as part of the GeneXus objects. However, Nexa is currently unable to create or modify these forms. Support for this functionality is being implemented.
As of April 2026, published skills do not include GAM knowledge. As a result, the CLI/LLM relies on public internet sources. A dedicated GAM skill will reduce inaccuracies and hallucinations.
As of June 2026, GeneXus Next on macOS can only be used through Docker containers for all components. A native IDE and Business Layer (BL) for macOS would provide a faster, smoother, and more seamless experience for Mac users.
