## Release notes

# 1.62.0

### ✨ New features

- **Deployment-based guardrails**  
  Enforce your own domain-specific safety logic directly using Deployments as guardrails. Whether you need to flag sensitive content, mask PII, or hard-block non-compliant requests, deployment-based guardrails give you full programmatic control and flexibility. Bring your own models, your own rules, and your own thresholds without being locked into a predefined safety framework.

- **Alerts on custom metrics**  
  Alerts can now be configured on custom metrics. Registration deployments also support custom-metric alerts. For line/bar charts an alert is raised for every x-y value pair where the y value crosses the defined threshold; for timeseries the aggregation value (sum/max/min/average) is evaluated against the threshold.

- **Data cards and model cards for repository-less deployments**  
  Data cards and model cards can now be added to deployments that do not have a linked repository.
