2026-11-10 - AI Agents: Business Glossary Tools and Data Clean Room Guidance
=================================================================================

AgileData.io - Words First: AI Agents Agree the Business Terms Before Building

ADI and AI agents connected through the AgileData MCP server can now read and write Business Glossary terms. These tools, along with the Data Dictionary, are grouped together in a new **Business Glossary** tool group. When you ask "what does this mean?", the agent knows which tools to use.

The guidance agents follow has changed too: **agree the business terms first, then name the data**. Before an agent names a new table or column, it checks the glossary. If the term isn't there, it proposes one as a draft for you to review.

The Data Dictionary now also returns the identifier for each table and column. This lets an agent link a glossary term to the exact columns it describes.

A **data clean room** guide has also been added. In a clean room, one tenancy collects the data and another receives only the agreed results. Agents now recognise this pattern, so a shared tile without a local rule isn't treated as an orphan, and its meaning isn't guessed from its column names.

**What's New:**

* Business Glossary tools available to ADI and MCP agents
* A dedicated tool group for the glossary and the Data Dictionary
* Agent guidance that agrees business terms before naming tables and columns
* Table and column identifiers returned by the Data Dictionary
* A new data clean room guide for agents

**What this means for you:**

* Names in your data follow the business language you've agreed
* Your AI assistant can answer "what does this mean?" from the glossary
* Shared data in a clean room is understood correctly, rather than flagged as a problem
