Honeycomb (Sep 29, 2026) made Canvas Connectors generally available—“12 connectors and growing”—plus Anomaly Detection GA. AI Ecosystem and LLM cost tracking stay early access.
Shopify (Sep 28, 2026): Checkout WebMCP tools let browser agents get, update, and complete eligible checkouts after buyer confirmation—no new card entry via tools; Web Bot Auth for verified bots.
