Studio Desktop 2025.10

Autopilot agent in Studio Desktop 2025.10: capabilities, connected sources, and known limitations.

Autopilot in Studio Desktop 2025.10 is an agentic AI assistant that plans, executes, and validates multi-step automation development tasks using natural language via a direct cloud connection. It creates, edits, debugs, and maintains both RPA workflows and coded automations without requiring you to leave Studio.

Note:

On Studio 2025.10 versions earlier than 2025.10.9, Autopilot requires autopwhereprdsa.z6.web.core.windows.net (TCP, port 443, HTTPS) to be added to your firewall allowlist. This requirement was removed in 2025.10.9. Upgrade to 2025.10.11 or later to remove this dependency. For the complete list of endpoints Studio connects to, refer to Services Studio Connects To.

Use Autopilot to:

  • Create new RPA workflows (.xaml) from a plain-language description.
  • Edit existing workflows — add, remove, replace, or restructure activities.
  • Generate C# coded workflows, coded test cases, and utility source files.
  • Configure activity properties, variables, arguments, and control flow.
  • Understand, explain, or summarize what existing activities and code blocks do.
  • Improve workflow logic with better structure and error handling.
  • Debug, run, and validate workflows directly from the chat.
  • Find and install NuGet packages required by generated workflows.
  • Discover available UiPath activities and retrieve their default XAML templates.
  • Analyze files for linting errors and apply auto-fixes.
  • Automate manual test cases retrieved from Test Manager.
  • Load and analyze Healing Agent intervention data from robot execution jobs.
  • Search documentation and the web for UiPath best practices.

Connected sources

RPA workflow tools

  • RPA Workflow Create—Creates a new .xaml workflow file from scratch, writes XAML content to disk, and registers the file in project.json.
  • RPA Workflow Edit—Edits an existing .xaml workflow file by replacing exact XAML content sections with new content.
  • RPA Workflow Grep—Searches for regex patterns within a single .xaml file and returns matched lines with surrounding context.
  • RPA Activity Search—Globally searches for UiPath activities by name or description and returns class name, type ID, and description.
  • RPA Activity Default—Retrieves the default XAML template for a specified activity with all default properties pre-configured.
  • RPA Workflow Examples List—Searches a catalog of reference workflow examples by service or integration tags.
  • RPA Workflow Examples Get—Retrieves the full XAML content of a specific example workflow by its catalog key.

Project and package tools

  • Get Project Context—Queries project metadata, available entities, current designer state, and UI Object Repository.
  • Install or Update Packages—Installs new NuGet packages or updates existing ones in the project.
  • Get Package Versions—Returns available versions for a specified NuGet package from configured package sources.
  • Get Errors—Retrieves validation errors for the current file or the entire project.
  • Run Workflow—Executes or debugs a workflow file within Studio Desktop.
  • Lint File—Analyzes a file for coding errors, style issues, and potential bugs, and can auto-fix issues.

Code tools

  • Code Generation Prerequisites—Provides C# code examples, UiPath-specific API documentation, and entity information for generating coded workflows.
  • Get Type Definitions—Provides type definitions for variables, properties, and methods at a specified file location.
  • Get Quick Fixes—Returns available quick fixes for errors at specified positions in C# files.

File management tools

  • Read File—Reads file contents with optional offset and limit.
  • Create File—Creates a new file at the specified path; supports coded workflows, test cases, source files, and other file types.
  • Edit File—Makes targeted modifications to an existing file.
  • Move File—Moves a file to a different directory or renames it within the project structure.
  • Delete File—Permanently deletes a file from the project.
  • List Directory—Lists all files and subdirectories at a given directory path.
  • Get Project Structure—Returns the full recursive file and folder structure of the current project.
  • File Search—Searches for files matching a regex pattern within a root directory.
  • Grep—Recursively searches for a regex pattern in file contents across a directory.

Test tools

  • Get Manual Test Cases—Retrieves all manual test cases from the connected Test Manager project.
  • Get Manual Test Steps—Retrieves the detailed steps for specified manual test cases from Test Manager.
  • Add Test Data Variation—Associates a JSON data variation file with a test case for data-driven testing.

Knowledge and search tools

  • Web Search—Searches the internet using a natural language query.
  • UiPath Documentation Search—Searches UiPath's official documentation and returns relevant excerpts with source links.
  • Web Reader—Extracts readable content from a publicly accessible URL.
  • Run PowerShell Command—Executes PowerShell commands, including UiPath CLI operations.

Task management

  • Todo—Creates and updates a structured task list for tracking progress on complex multi-step operations.

Known limitations

  • AI model display name — Kimi K2.6 appears as "Virtuoso" in Studio Desktop 2025.10.x. It will display its real name starting 2026.10.
  • Legacy Autopilot panel deprecation — The embedded "Fix validation error" and "UiPath documentation search" actions, and the legacy Autopilot panel (Fix error, doc search, Healing Agent) are scheduled for removal in Studio 2026.10. Error-fixing and doc search will continue through the Autopilot coding agent; Healing Agent will move to its own dedicated panel.
