The latest SonarQube Server news and updates

• Architecture management, now in SonarQube Server. Define intended architecture, visualize the current state, and catch architectural deviations automatically, at no added cost.
• A new quality gate and rules built for agentic code. "Sonar way for Agentic AI" tightens security, reliability, and dependency checks while easing off minor style feedback, so agent-driven pipelines aren't slowed by low-impact noise. A new dedicated family of agentic-security rules extends AI security detection, catching the threat classes that emerge specifically when agents write the code.
• Faster, simpler workflows. A unified security issue and hotspot workflow, a guided one-click GitHub App setup that cuts integration time from around 12 minutes to under two, and research-backed performance baselines remove friction across the development lifecycle.
