We have a few large updates to Mudstack we’re excited to give to y’all!

🌄What's New?

Folder Syncing

Mudstack can now track changes to folders!

Scaffold out folders and push it for the team without having to add stub files. When reorganizing your workspace, the folder tracking should also ensure everyone is getting all of your pushed folder changes.

Account Plugins

Account-Based Plugins let studios upload, version, and manage custom plugins directly in Mudstack. Admins control plugin availability at the account level, while the Mudstack desktop app automatically installs and updates plugins on startup.

Account plugins can be distributed to your team, where your team can enable and disable them locally.

Other Plugin Updates

• Targa substance plugins config settings to properly set dimensions

Custom Attributes (beta)

Custom attributes let you define your own metadata fields on files in a workspace. Attributes for production status, external IDs, links to tools like Jira or Miro, or technical data such as poly counts can now be added to your files for a richer search experience.

For the admins, we also have a validation step to check if any values are impacted from attribute changes you make so data doesn’t get lost.

Combining custom attributes, webhooks, and our API to integrate Mudstack with all of you other production apps.

We are actively looking for feedback on custom attributes. Let us know if you are interested in it, and we’ll add it to your account!

🤖 AI Agent is now in closed beta!

The Mudstack AI Agent is a new in-app creative assistant, now available in beta on request, designed to help artists work faster by reducing manual asset management and context switching.

Using natural language, artists can search, organize, rename, tag, and comment on assets, ask questions about Mudstack features and workflows, and get guidance on related tools like Unreal, Maya, Unity, and Photoshop all within Mudstack.

The Agent focuses on assistive, reviewable actions. The majority of actions the Agent can take happen locally so changes can be verified before pushing to your team.

Since this is in beta, some tools may not be immediately available, and behavior will evolve as we improve accuracy, coverage, and performance based on feedback from you and your teams.

🪲 Bug Fixes

• Fix show only local trash not properly showing local trash
• Add additional file name validation to asset renaming
