# Thuerk - April 2026 Roadmap

**Agent Skills for Datum Cloud \-** Published a structured skills/ library giving AI agents authoritative, resource-scoped task patterns for Datum's key primitives[. \#697](https://github.com/datum-cloud/enhancements/issues/697)

**Public site for Agents \-** launched [agents.datum.net](http://agents.datum.net) as a dedicated entry point for AI coding agents with LLM-optimized content so agents can evaluate and operate Datum without human intervention. [\#694](https://github.com/datum-cloud/enhancements/issues/694) 

**Portal AI Chatbot \-** Embedded an AI assistant (Patch) directly into the cloud portal so users can inspect resources, query live traffic metrics and get CLI guidance without ever leaving the page. [\#678](https://github.com/datum-cloud/enhancements/issues/678)

**Datumctl Context Support** \- Added `kubectl`\-style context switching to `datumctl` so developers can manage multiple Datum environments (staging, production, on-prem) with persistent config, without credentials overwriting each other. [\#653](https://github.com/datum-cloud/enhancements/issues/653) 

**Publish Iroh Connector Details to Datum Connect DNS** \- Connector connection details (relay, IPs, ports) are now published as DNS TXT records, enabling the Iroh Gateway to connect to specific devices without a full discovery loop - a foundational improvement for Connector scalability.
