Microsoft releases MAI-Code-1-Flash model and agent policy tools

Microsoft has developed a new 137 billion parameter model called MAI-Code-1-Flash, trained between March and May 2026 with a 256K token context window. The company also released policy specification tools, ASSERT and Agent Control Spec, to help developers define agent access permissions. These tools aim to address the need for clear policies in agent development and ensure containment is effectively enforced. AI

IMPACT Microsoft's release of MAI-Code-1-Flash and agent policy tools could influence how developers build and manage AI agents, potentially improving safety and control.
