Describe the problem/error/question

I upgrade the cloud version fon the n8n platform to 1.82.1 yesterday. Since that update, when I create a new workflow and select AI Agent, I can no longer see the Agent drop down; it’s just not available. Instead of “Windows Buffer Memory”, I see “Simple Memory”. I don’t know what’s going on.

What is the error message (if any)?

No error, things are just very different with some options gone.

We have simplified the agent setup as there was a lot of overlap and a lot of confusion for our users about which agent type to use. This meant some agent types were deprecated. It is likely that the agent you’ve used was one of those types. I’d recommend putting in a new agent of the default type and reconnecting the model & memory nodes.
