Decision model evaluators, OpenAI and Anthropic model updates, Trace retention visibility

Create decision model evaluators

Create decision model evaluators to classify and score large volumes of text faster and at a much lower cost than LLM-as-a-judge evaluators. This release includes support for TypeSafe Jev decision models. Learn more

OpenAI and Anthropic model updates

The following LLM models are now available in evaluators, Playgrounds, and prompts:
  • OpenAI:
    • GPT-6 Astra
    • GPT-6 Luna
    • GPT-6 Sol
    • GPT-6.1 Sol
  • Anthropic:
    • Claude Fable 5.1
    • Claude Haiku 5.5
    • Claude Opus 5.5
    • Claude Sonnet 5.5
OpenAI has removed API support for the following models:
  • GPT-4.1 Nano
  • GPT-4 Turbo
  • GPT-4o (2024-05-13)
  • GPT-o1
  • GPT-o3
  • GPT-o4 mini
If you use these models in Agent Observability, update your evaluators, Playgrounds, and prompts to use different models.

Trace retention visibility

The Splunk Observability Cloud trace retention policy is now visible on the Tracing tab for an Agent Stream. Tracing data for Agent Observability (SaaS) is retained for 30 days by default. Learn moreTrace data retention from an Agent Stream
AI Assistant support for Splunk Agent Observability, control evaluator access by project and role

AI Assistant support for Splunk Agent Observability

You can now ask the Splunk Observability Cloud AI Assistant about Splunk Agent Observability features.Use the AI Assistant to troubleshoot your agentic system with questions like “Why did the agent take this action?” or “What’s driving this evaluator?” and it answers with links straight to the evidence and a concrete fix, pulling from your traces, spans, sessions, and evaluation scores.

Control evaluator access by project and role

Choose whether an evaluator is global and available in every project, or project-scoped and available in selected projects. A user’s project role determines their access to project-scoped evaluators. Learn more
Luna-3

Announcing Luna-3 for enterprise customers

Luna-3 is now available for enterprise users in realms us0, us1, eu0, and au0.Luna-3 is the third generation of Splunk Agent Observability evaluation models. It provides the following improvements over the previous generation:
  • Improved speed and accuracy: Luna-3 is 30-40% faster and improves accuracy by 8-10% for Prompt Injection, Toxicity, Sexism, PII, and Context Adherence evaluations.
  • Multimodal evaluation: Use images as inputs with supported Luna-3 evaluators.
  • Better generalization: Broader and more diverse training data improves performance across domains, writing styles, and applications.
  • Greater prompt steerability: More detailed training labels help Luna-3 respond more effectively to evaluator instructions and policy boundaries.
  • Shared semantics with LLM-as-a-judge: Luna-3 and LLM-as-a-judge evaluators now use the same logical inputs across sessions, traces, spans, and other supported evaluation levels.
  • More efficient inference: A new sparse model architecture and vLLM-based serving improve performance and support quantized models.
SaaS deployments support the following preset Luna evaluators:
  • Prompt Injection
  • Toxicity
  • Sexism
  • PII
  • Context Adherence
