Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio CI/CD adds notebook promotion and AI-assisted manifest generation

<p>Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio CI/CD expands its open-source deployment toolkit with two new capabilities: (1) an AI agent skill that automates manifest authoring, and (2) native notebook promotion across environments. Together, they help data teams go from project to production faster while maintaining best-practice defaults across stages.</p> <p><b>AI-assisted manifest generation. </b>The new generate-bundle-manifest agent skill inspects a project's connections, storage, and workflows and produces a ready-to-use deployment manifest. It applies least-privilege IAM guidance, substitutes environment variables in place of hardcoded resource identifiers, and sets safe defaults such as opt-in catalog handling. Teams can import the skill into their own agents to standardize how they package and promote SageMaker Unified Studio projects across development, test, and production accounts.</p> <p><b>Native notebook promotion. </b>The CI/CD toolkit now supports promoting native SMUS Notebooks alongside code, workflows, and catalog assets. Notebook promotion uses an in-place synchronization model that creates a notebook on first deployment and updates it on subsequent deployments, preserving run history across releases. Teams can promote every notebook in a project or select specific notebooks by ID, and a dry-run mode validates S3 connectivity, IAM permissions, and notebook counts before deployment. Notebook promotion integrates with the existing bundle, deploy, destroy, and dry-run commands and requires no changes to current pipeline structure.</p> <p>Both capabilities are open source and available in all AWS Regions where Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio is offered.</p> <p>To get started, visit the <a href="https://github.com/aws/CICD-for-SageMakerUnifiedStudio">CICD-for-SageMakerUnifiedStudio</a> repository on GitHub.
