## New contextual menu integrations

The [contextual menu](/ai/contextual-menu) now supports three new AI tool integrations:

- **Google AI Studio** — Open any documentation page directly in Google AI Studio for AI-assisted queries.

Don't put a space before or after a dash.

Add `aistudio`, `devin`, or `windsurf` to your `contextual.options` array in `docs.json` to enable them.

## Open in editor from preview widget

The [preview widget](/deploy/preview-deployments#preview-widget) now lets you jump straight into editing. Hover over any changed file in the widget and click the **Open in editor** icon to edit the file directly in the web editor.

## Parameter anchor links in API playground

Every parameter in the [API playground](/api-playground/overview#parameter-anchor-links) now has a clickable anchor link. Hover over a parameter name to reveal the link icon, then click to copy a direct URL to that parameter. Use these links to share references to specific parameters in support conversations or documentation.

## Improvements

- Slack app can now be installed directly from the [workflow](/agent/workflows) configuration page, so you no longer need to navigate to a separate settings page to connect Slack before enabling notifications.
