[DigitalToday reporter Chi-gyu Hwang (황치규)] Workday has added three new features to its HR and finance AI development platform, Workday Build: a developer agent, Agent-Ready Tools and Agent Passport.

Techzine reported on Monday local time that the developer agent integrates with tools developers already use, including Claude Code, Cline, Codex, Cursor and Google Antigravity.

If a user enters a natural-language request such as "Create an agent that sends an alert to the finance team when a department exceeds its budget," it selects the appropriate tools, connects data and services, and automatically creates the agent. Workday CTO Gabe Monroy said tasks that used to take days can be completed in minutes.

Agent-Ready Tools is an enterprise connector for autonomous agents. Unlike a typical API, it provides agents with accurate business logic and context to reduce AI errors and delays, the company said. It connects through open standards such as the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and automatically pulls in Workday's security model and audit logs. Through Pipedream, which Workday acquired in November 2025, it supports integration with more than 3,000 external services.

Agent Passport is a feature that independently verifies whether security and compliance standards are met before an agent is deployed. Cisco is the first certification partner.

The developer agent and Agent-Ready Tools are available in early access through Workday Extend Professional and are set for full release in the second half of 2026. Agent Passport will enter early access within this year and is set for full release at the end of 2026.
