What simplified mode does
Simplified mode is a streamlined view of the docs for non-technical Agent Studio users. It hides developer-only sections, API references, and advanced configuration so you only see what you need for day-to-day low-code and no-code work.Low-code / no-code focus
Hides the Developer, API reference, and Advanced tabs and any pages tagged as code-required.
Cleaner sidebar
Collapses sidebar groups like Tools, Secrets, Flows, and Variant management that require engineering knowledge.
Inline developer notes
Where a page mixes UI and code, the developer details stay but are tucked behind an expandable accordion.
Persists across pages
Once you turn it on, simplified mode stays on across pages and sessions until you click Exit simplified mode.
