Jules Agent Update: Faster, Smarter, More Reliable

June 20, 2025

Jules environment updates

We’ve shipped a big upgrade to the Jules agent under the hood.

What’s new:

  • Smarter context. Jules reads from AGENTS.md if it’s in your repo.
  • Improved performance. Tasks now complete faster—no numbers to share just yet, but you’ll feel it.
  • Significantly reduced punting. We tightened the loop to keep Jules moving forward.
  • More reliable setup. If you’ve added an environment setup script, Jules now runs it consistently.
  • Better test habits. Jules is more likely to write and run tests on its own.
