+## September 15, 2026 update
+
+This update adds a discovery and inventory section to the atlas. It distinguishes
+native Agent 365 onboarding from connected-platform metadata synchronization,
+shows Agent Map as a registry-backed visual inventory, and keeps Shadow AI in a
+separate unmanaged-agent governance lane. Connected-platform synchronization is
+manual in the currently documented preview; scheduled synchronization is a
+future release. The diagrams also identify the documented external platform
+categories and their current examples.
