- **Support for the [Store](/docs/api/qiskit/circuit#store) instruction on IBM&reg; QPUs** - Now you can simplify complex classical computations in your quantum circuits with the Store instruction.

- Compute a classical expression mid-circuit and save the result to a variable or register, which can then immediately control subsequent quantum gates. Instead of deeply nested inline expressions, you can break computations into named intermediate steps, so that complex classical feedback logic is easier to read and maintain. **Common use cases** include the following:

- **Introducing the Executor primitive**: We're excited to announce the release of the new `Executor` primitive and a new version of the noise-learning helper class, `NoiseLearnerV3`, both of which were first previewed at QDC 2025.

Together with [Samplomatic](https://qiskit.github.io/samplomatic/index.html), they make up the [directed execution model](/docs/guides/directed-execution-model), which provides full transparency and control to fine-tune your error mitigation workflow. The [Probabilistic error cancellation with shaded lightcones](https://qiskit.github.io/qiskit-addon-slc/tutorials/01_getting_started.html) tutorial, for example, demonstrates how this model is used to combine advanced techniques, including shaded lightcones, probabilistic error cancellation (PEC), Twirled Readout Error eXtinction (TREX), and [measurement-based postselection](/docs/guides/post-selection), to further improve the result quality.
